Today Christian attended high school orientation all afternoon, followed by a pep rally where parents were also invited to attend.
Being in the gym, surrounded by eager freshman and encouraging and thoughtful upperclassmen, as well as kind administrators still didn’t make me feel quite ready for the experience. I am fully aware that this stage is the beginning of the end. He’ll always be my baby, but it’s time for him to grow up and learn independence and to be with his friends. I just pray he finds a great group of guys to enjoy the experience together and stays out of trouble, study’s hard and does good work.
He did great today! And I think I did ok too!! Good luck, CJ. Live it up!!

Sarah will be going to the same HS next year! π
I too, am not quite ready for my baby to step into this journey.. But it will happen. I have already talked with admin and teachers, and have a semi- calming sense of what is to come… Megan has shown me the confidence that she has and that I need, and that has helped.. A win win situation… Just keep swimming….:)
