I was trolling her school's web page and had to hold back the tears-my baby eating lunch in the lunch room, without me there making sure she eats, her walking into/out of the school ALONE. What if big kids tease her? Worse-what if she befriends the big kids and learns things she shouldn't?? Oh, mommy worries!!
Did I mention that I was homeschooled? I never had to face these fears, I mean I did, just not so intensely! I'm so scared for Ruby!
BUT!!!! I know she is sooooo ready! That girl is ridiculously smart-she is ready for the intellectual challenge. The social side....that will be interesting! She is seeing a therapist right now for some anxiety issues-(so grateful for our wonderful psychologist!) Ruby is learning some great coping skills/tools to help with all those overwhelming moments.
Did I mention Ruby's in therapy?? That's for another post, but I will say this: EVERYONE could use a therapy session!!
Anyways, just a little update. Here's a picture of our summer thus far....as good as it got...lol!
