  1. Most of us moms feel that way when our little ones to off to school the first time.  When my first one went to kindergarten I cried for an hour after he left on the bus.  He just looked so little and helpless getting on that great big bus lol.  But when they get home and are so excited about making new friends and all the things they did, you will feel better knowing that he has a good time there.


  2. YES!  Normal!  My oldest just started kindergarten.  Even if you've had him in preschool, kindergarten is just different.  It's every day, it's real school, it matters how well he does--preschool just doesn't matter that much other than giving them a good foundation and practice being in a classroom.  

    After the first few weeks, it gets easier.  It's hard to watch your babies grow up and see that they will never be the sweet little babies they were who idolize you and adore you in every way.  Just keep loving them and they will always know!

  3. Yes! My son is 4 and will be in Kindergarten next year and I already feel the anxiety!!! I get all teary eyed just thinking about it! I know I am going to have to hide my emotions and tears or else I will freak him out but I know that as soon as I get home and close the door I am going to start crying like a baby!!!!!!
