It is hard to let Kylie go everyday. I know I say that allot but really if this girl was your daughter you would feel that spark she brings into our lives and fills us up everyday and not want it to leave on a yellow school bus for everyone else to have. Sometimes I don't like to share. But she has to grow up just like I did. And that is a good thing. Its just hard.
But today was extra hard when she stepped off that yellow school bus to tell me she had been punched in the face and headbutted twice by a boy in her class. My heart kept breaking as she told the story, it was as if she felt bad or she was somehow responsible for what had happened. I kept reassuring her she did the right thing to tell her teacher and I called the school right away.
She is such a tough girl, she really is and I'm so happy that we spent the whole afternoon together and that spark kept on shining. I love being a mother. I love being their mother.
I just don't like when kids are mean.
