Here, in our area, it is the countdown of the last week before school and there are so many emotions.

Relief.

Anxiety.

Excitement.

Stress.

Anticipation.

Fear.

And many others I am sure. Each year, for years and years we go through this.

Then it comes to an end. Parents out there – we see you. (Cry, celebrate, cheer them on…even if all you want to do is go back to the beginning.)

New challenges.

New milestones.

New chapters.

New friends.

New loves.

While we are not fully yet there, the countdown to the final year for each person going through it has its moments. Go through the process that you must. There is no other way but forward.
