it’s been a week today, since Zoe started school.
I have grown a little more accustomed to the whole idea.

but I still miss her.
I count the hours and the minutes that she is away from me.
she is all I can think about.
even when I’m trying to write a post.
today’s was supposed to be about a peach smoothie recipe.
remember?

my mind wanders far from whatever I am doing throughout the day.
I can’t focus on anything other than the fact that my little girl isn’t around.
there’s a big gaping hole in my heart right now.
and I haven’t yet figured out a way to fill it.
I miss my little girl.

It’s a little disconcerting, isn’t it? You’ll get used to it and you have school holidays coming up in another month or so to enjoy Zoe at home for awhile.
I can’t get over how much she’s changed over the short 6 years of her life! She gets more beautiful every day and more precious, but then I’m more than a little partial since she’s my favourite granddaughter.
Kalurah, It get’s better. Really. It’s so hard though, I know. I drop my daughter off at the corner by school (11 year old), and she has to cross at the light. I literally sit there in the car in the pull-out to watch her get all the way across missing two lights to do so with other parents whizzing right by. And if they forget their homework or lunch etc it’s all I can do to stop myself from swooping in and saving the day. Those stinkers! I can’t believe they have to grow up!
It’s so hard to send our babies out into the world. We want them to love that big, lovely world because of its wonderfulness. We also want to keep those babies swaddled in our warm embrace because we know that same world can be hard and cold. Love your sweet girl as big as you can and know that she loves you back. And when she rushes home to you to share all of her adventures, trust her smile as being the truth – she is the girl that you’ve guided into this world. And she will be the girl who always finds her way home to you.
Zoe, you are one beautiful girl. You have such a sweet heart and you seem like such a confident soul. Let your beautiful little heart shine!
having kids must be so beautiful but scary and painful too! i worry about my cat, i can only imagine what it’s like to worry about your own little girl. but i’m sure she’s doing great! having new experiences, making new friends…
