This evening we attended the incoming 6th grader orientation at My Kid’s new school. She’s starting a new school. She’s going to middle school. It was just a regular day, until we left the house and started walking toward the entrance to the subway to go to the school. I realized my heart was racing and I was afraid as though I was the one starting new school.
When we got to the school cafeteria there was so much information about the after school program. There were so many waivers and permission slips. I haven’t signed my name on so many different pieces of paper in a single sitting since we bought a house.
