I had all the same worries, a few more because of my son's dyslexia, but I think this year has really matured him. He is having to be organized, responsible for his schedule and like any year of school for us it has it's ups and downs. With Ben's challenges each school year has me praying for graduation, don't get me wrong...I don't want to rush my time with him but I do want to get him through school because I know he is going to be an awesome adult and the knowledge he has learned from the challenges he faced in school will take him far. I want Ben to see that although school was a lot of work, he made it through, he can do anything he sets his mind to. Melissa,

My oldest is in middle school and I feel all of this...the difficulty, the joy, the searing pain. Thanks for this reminder that moms are feeling this the world around--and have been forever.

My daughter is heading to high school too. I feel like I'm the moody one--one moment so proud and even pushing her to a bit more independence and then the next moment thinking--NO WAY--hold up! What a great gift to unwrap. Maybe God needs to wrap His arms around us and embrace the whole thing for us and with us. That sounds like a plan to me. Hugs. I am SO there with you.
