I must have done something right with him so far !! They all grow up too dang fast !!!!

It definitely is true what they say about parents having a tougher time going through this than kids do! Tomorrow is only a "get to know each other" school day. The kids only attend for an hour and one parent is allowed to go with them so we can all meet: parents, children, and teachers. But on Tuesday they´re on their own! I´m so nervous, and sad. :´(
