These are all bittersweet moments.
I had to laugh when I read your story.
I was happy, yet sad, as I took all my children to their first day of school and thought that as the 4th one went, I would be all aglow....WRONG....it was so sad and I was so surprised at myself. My others all went one year apart..but my last one I had with me for one extra year..and I so missed hom.
Time took care of that ...........fast !!!!!!!!!!
