misty...
Okay- I was so proud of myself for not crying yesterday, not even feeling tearful at all. But today it was harder. Rebecca still didn't want me to leave and that really tugged on my heartstrings. I'm so glad that I've had her around full time as long as I have. I don't regret my decision not to do formal pre-school with her. On my walk home from dropping her off I suddenly thought of my little girl in the big world and realized, who will make sure she's not too hot, too cold, hungry, thirsty.... I guess it's time for her to learn to take care of herself and she will do just fine. But it doesn't mean that I can't get a little misty while I'm adjusting to this new independence. Big girls DO cry, even when they feel right about the decisions they've made. It's all part of this thing we call life.
