And the day came. So many mixed feelings, but proud was absolutely on top of them all. My little girl was so serious when I asked to take some photos. She turned around right away to make sure I got a good shot of her special bag, and as soon as we were done, she yelled out “All ready Mum!” – so impatient to leave! She walked into the classroom like she’d done it a hundred times and I wanted to stay with her. Just a little. But we left and came back later to pick her up and she ran to me like it had been days and I love that so much. She’d made a Valentine’s Day heart for her Dad and I, covered in rainbow sparkles. My most favourite Valentine ever. M x
