As I was doing our weekly grocery shopping this evening, I realized that I had to buy food for my kids lunches for when they go to school this week.  Both of them- my 3 year old and my 5 year old.  In school. Full time.

And then I got all teary eyed because holy crap, my kids have never, ever been away from me for a full day before. We’ve always had the amazing Mary around which allowed us to send Scorch to school part time.  But no more- he’s going to Kindergarten and the Bean is starting preschool full time.

So, consider this post fair warning for the week ahead.  Either you won’t hear from me at all because I’ll be completely overwhelmed or you’ll be reading over emotional, hand wringing posts.  Read at your own risk.
