Partly lighthearted. Ds has had a great first week at secondary school, despite not getting his first choice, and lots of upset over it initially. He's taking it all in his stride and I'm so pleased, hopefully it lasts.
I on the other hand am finding it so so hard to get used to. After 7 years of taking him to his primary every day, I suddenly feel so uninvolved. I'm already missing all the emails, text updates and newsletters from his primary, picking him up each day. (I know it's pathetic), I do work by the way but school hours. I keep thinking of the events that would be coming up, cake sales, fates, coffee mornings, sports days that I won't be as involved in. My little boy is becoming a young man.
When do you start getting used to it?!

Year 7, Ds is fine, I'm not. When will I adjust?
