I find myself a little sad when school is canceled, not because the kids will be home and it will be more hectic. Not because I have to scramble to find daycare but because I miss hearing about their day. Especially now that Ava is also enrolled I am still not over how cute she looks as she bounces out of the car with her little red backpack!
I absolutely love hearing about their day at school and looking through their folder at graded papers and school work. Even Ava has picked up on my excitement. When we would pick Jenna up and I would immediately look in her binder at the paperwork she would bring home, and now when I pick Ava up she excitedly says "Mommy, do you want to see my folder".
The idea of raising my kids and allowing them to grow up is quite frightening most times but watching them go to school and learn and develop is so rewarding. Being a parent can be one of the most challenging jobs but it is definitely the most rewarding!
