Wishing For More Time
Today was the first day I didn't cry after dropping off our youngest at preschool. (Maybe it was too soon to say that because I feel teary after saying that.) I feel like an era is coming to an end and I am heartbroken to see it go. From here on out, I will see our children less and less as they grow up. Gone are the years that I am always accompanied to every errand. Gone are the years where the house is constantly filled with the children playing, laughing, and talking. The spontaneous hugs around my waist and kisses on the cheek will decrease. Now is the start of a too quiet house during the school year and the beginning of uncertainty for me. What will I do while they are in school? Will the children become more influenced by their peers than by us now? Will the children drift apart from us or each other or stay close in the coming years?
All I know is that in this moment, I don't regret the time I've had with them and I deeply wish it hadn't passed so quickly.
