Flying from the Nest: MaryLea on School

I was terrified for Em to start school. Three years later,  I’m looking for summer camps/summer school programs for her because there is no way we’re going to make it through the 3 month summer vacation without ending up on a therapist’s couch. It’s always an adjustment after holiday vacations or the start of new year with new teachers and friends (for mommy and the kiddos) but it’s such a lovely way for them to stretch their little wings and fly from the nest. You will all be better for the experience.
