End of an era in a grey morning
In my corner of the world the school year ends tomorrow. My youngest daughter had her last day at preschool today. We had our last morning stroll to this building that consists of the old house and a more recent annex.
In August, mum is not needed any more. The kids suddenly grow up and find it embarrassing to have a parent around. In Finland school runs are not obligatory. If the kid lives nearby the school, it’s perfectly ok to walk / ride a bike.
At least one of my kids have been a preschooler since 2006. Unlike many mothers I do not feel sentimental. All good things must come to an end. Life will be a lot simpler when all the kids attend the same school. Only one set of xmas parties, parent meetings etc.
