I feel as anxious as they do at the start of a new school year. They are so excited and nervous. I know school will be fun for them with new people and fun experiences, but I also know how mean kids can be to each-other and have had my heart sink as I hear the stories of what they have experienced.
I learned long ago that motherhood means wearing your heart outside of your body.
I saw this poem on a friend's blog and it sums up exactly how I feel every year when I send them off to school.
