How to get over...

the fact my baby is not a baby anymore and is starting school in two weeks?

I know it sounds dramatic but it just makes me feel so sad. They're very excited about going and I've never told them how I'm feeling. I'm sitting here, going through baby photos, crying 🥲

Anybody else going through this at the moment or just me being a drama queen? 🙈

Yes! My youngest is starting nursery, but it is at my eldest’s school, school hours and school uniform - so school to all extents and purposes.

I’m excited for her but incredibly emotional about it. I’ve also been a SAHP for the last 5.5 years, and not sure what I’m going to do with myself…

@imisscashmere Thankyou for taking the time to reply ❤️

It's just a complete whirlwind of emotion. She's very excited to be starting which is a bonus but I just look at her and worry about how she'll cope. She's been to nursery since 6 months old and I've worked full time so then Mum guilt comes into play about have I done enough with her etc.

I hope your little one settles in well xx
