the cat's in the cradle

My baby is starting preschool on Monday.  MY BABY IS STARTING PRESCHOOL ON MONDAY.




Cal I was a little more worried about when he started school.  Cal is shy.  Cal is deliberate and reserved, which, in the caveman world of preschool, translates more to getting squashed on.  And Cal can be stubborn as hell about change.




But Mack is ready.  This kid is ready for school.  He was ready months ago.  Not that there's not going to be some transition (I still don't think he quite understands that the "school" part of school involves actually leaving him there all day) but he's going  to love it and he's going to make friends and he's going to thrive.  And honestly the only reservation I have about sending him on Monday is the fact that he's my baby, my little baby who was born just yesterday, so it seems, and I'm just not quite ready to let him go.
