If My Mom Could Talk

I want to write about taking John and Rosie today.  And I’ll do that, hopefully tomorrow, but right now, I would love for you to read my mom’s article.  She wrote this every year at the beginning of school.  This is a copy that her editor sent me.  It’s from two years ago when John started kindergarten.  I miss her so much today.  I know she would understand this transition of sending my baby to school.  And she would say something comforting and wise to me.  But instead she barely talks now, and Im’ not sure if she knows me most of the time.  I don’t know if it’s that, or just the deep truth of what this article says, but I love it.  So I wanted you to see it too.  Our children are precious, and we are handing them off.
