Embarking
Today was Ethan’s first day of first grade. I dropped him off, at the wrong entrance, I might add. The principle, a nice lady, first hastily corrected my mistake and then introduced herself. She asked Ethan his name and his teacher’s name. Then she turned to me and said they would take good care of him. I kissed him on the forehead and said I would see him after school. He turned and I turned and then walked away, fighting back the tears. I looked back and he walked through the doors.
Heaviness
Where do I begin? My heart has been wrenched a bit in the last few days. I recently opened my eyes up to the pain others are going through/have gone through out in the big wide world. Not that I didn’t believe it was all happening, but rather I chose to not be informed because of the way it tore at my soul. All of the seemingly hopeless situations that abound out beyond my little world.
A Bit of Vacation
To all of you who enjoy reading a little bit in to my world, forgive me for being on such a long hiatus from this here blog.
