I sat down to eat my cottage cheese and pineapple breakfast at the computer and what is filling my FB wall? Pictures of darling children going back to school! All those smiling faces, but no one is showing the "cat that ate the canary" grin on the parents' faces or the forced grin on the teachers' faces or the tears streaming down the college parents' faces. Where are those pictures?
Tomorrow, eldest son gets dropped off at college and following behind Boy will no longer be Boy at Home. He is joining the ranks of College Dorm Boy. sniff sniff
My children voiced their concern about how I would handle empty nest. Sweet little birdies worrying about the momma bird. I joked and said "I'm going to Disneyland!!" Truth be told, I won't be celebrating at Disneyland....I'll be celebrating at Dr. offices. The Momma Bird's momma is still trying to figure out what caused the fainting over 2 weeks ago. After poking and prodding around her head and deciding that the brain aneurysm had nothing to do with the fainting, she is back to the cardiologist. I'm thinking the dehydration had more to do with the fainting and divine intervention revealed the brain aneurysm, but who am I, mere mortal???!!!!
So I'm off to be a third set of eyes and ears and happy to do it. I thank The Divine Intervention that I'm done with schooling and free to be there.
Happy Monday, Grainiacs. For those retired teaching grainiacs, try not to gloat, but DO enjoy the day!!!!!
