Can't sleep

[party of 3]

I'm usually in bed by now and I soooooo can not sleep.
Bubba starts school tomorrow and I think I've got myself all worked
up about it. Will he have a good year? Will he have a good teacher?
I would usually chat with MA about all this and maybe that's what's bugging me. She would be here. She should be here. She would be the voice of reason. She would be here at the crack of dawn with donuts and coffee staking out her spot to watch him get on the bus. And then she would make her way to the school to watch him get off the bus. She just loved him. As much as I do and it's not right that she's not here.
we did our bedtime routine and he asked me if I thought she would be with him tomorrow. I said of course she will. I hope she's watching over us.
Life is just hard some days.
thanks for letting me vent.
See you all in the am.
Night

It's gonna be a great year!! Bubba has a great mom, and you will keep on top of things. And he is a great kid, and is happy to see his friends... It'll all work out just fine!

I know what you mean though! The first day of school after my mom was gone, and I sat in the parking lot and just cried. It hit me so hard I was shocked. Every one since I have a little moment. I totally understand.

Hugs to you my friend

Holly, you are such a good Mom and Bubba is an awesome boy. He's going to have a fantastic year. And, your Mom will be with him all the way.

I'm sure your Ma will be watching over Bubba. And this year, she gets to be in class with him, everyday.

I'll be thinking about you today.

Holly - you bet she is there! I do understand as it is nearly 2 yrs since my DH passed and he was a teacher for 34 yrs - we always started the school yr together. Trust me, his picture is on my desk at school and I know he is there just as your mom is enjoying Bubba's first day, in fact, every day.
I know Bubba's day will be great - after all, look who he has as his role models to guide him! Caroline

Big Hugs Holly! The first day of school is so rough, even if you are not missing a loved one. I am sure your Mom is watching down and sending strength to both you and Bubba.

My grandpa was a Santa. He did his Santa gig for many years (I was older when he started, but my sibs always were amazed that Santa knew the insider info on our family). The first Christmas was really rough, and it is still bittersweet, but it does get easier.

HAVE A GREAT DAY BUBBA!

Ah, Holly...wish I had been up last night to see this. You know Ma is there, she wouldn't let him do this alone.

 

[Lisa]

Ma is definitely with him and you.

 

[TinkerBean]

Oh Holly, I too wish that I had been awake and read this...

Your Mom is with you and with Bubba always, watching over your family. I know it's hard - believe me I know. Lean on us - were are all here for you...

So Holly - how was his first day?

He had a great day. A long day but a good day. We have a few bus issues to work out but it will all be good.

Thank you all for all your wonderful words and love and support.
You have no idea what it means to me to know that i have all of you.

Love-hugs and thanks again~
