Hey! I'm new, and a SAHM of 2 boys.  One in 4th grade, the other starting full day Kindergarten this year.  I'm sort of freaking out about the new change of both of them in school, and I being alone since over 9 years.  A part of me is excited to have free time, another part is scared I'll go bonkers!  Anyone feel the same?  I know the change is good.  I am grateful that they are both healthy enough to go.  I know that this is the right thing.  I guess I have letting go issues?  LOL  We meet the teachers Thurs. night.  Some of this fear is that I'm not sure my younger son is ready for Kindergarten.  I'm scared for him.  I don't want his self esteem to be hurt if kids don't understand him, etc.  Sigh.  We did everyday, half day Pre-K last year and that went o.k.  He's small, so we all tend to treat him younger than he is.  I considered holding him back, but I don't know what I would do with him!  So I figure we'll give it a try, being very positive, and wait and see what happens at the end of the year if he needs to repeat etc.  I worry too much!  Does anyone else?  LOL  Okay thanks for listening to me rant.
