unsinkable Posted September 1, 2011 Share Posted September 1, 2011 I get more emotional and melancholy in September than I do in January. Another year gone, the kids another year older. I try to count my blessings, be grateful for all the good things but I still have that ache inside that time is moving too fast. :crying: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

September freaks me out because I know another winter is coming soon. I really dislike winter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hsmomto4 Posted September 1, 2011 Share Posted September 1, 2011 I look at September the same way :grouphug: It's the school year is my New Year and I feel another year older...another school year gone...one more year closer to my girls being grown... Yep, I could sit down and cry right now :-( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I talk to the trees Posted September 2, 2011 Share Posted September 2, 2011 I get more emotional and melancholy in September than I do in January. Another year gone, the kids another year older. I try to count my blessings, be grateful for all the good things but I still have that ache inside that time is moving too fast. :crying: :grouphug: Someone asked me recently how long we've been homeschooling. I paused to think....and then my jaw dropped as I said, "This is our 7th year." Seven years? WHERE did they all go? *sigh* Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oakblossoms Posted September 2, 2011 Share Posted September 2, 2011 :grouphug: We started up this week. Today just isn't any good. I hope it gets better and you can make some memories to build on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
meggie Posted September 2, 2011 Share Posted September 2, 2011 It's only my first year homeschooling and it's got me melancholy: "He's in kindergarten, how could he be old enough for kindergarten? He's almost six, that's 1/3 of his time at home with me? Wasn't he born just last year? Where did all the time go?" :grouphug: I did manage to pick myself up a little by remember that Castle and Community will be starting again in a few weeks. It took some of the hurt away. :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
