Back to School Night Got me Right in the Feels

Last night was back to school night. I love those kinds of events, I just feel like such a mom.

I was so emotional about it last night. Andrew was walking me around the classroom, showing me some of his work, his face was beaming with pride. I thought back to when my parents would be there in my classroom. I remembered how proud I felt showing them around. Now my son is walking me around his classroom.

Maybe it sounds silly, but I was overwhelmed with emotion and certainly did not expect to feel that way.

I love being a mom, watching my boys grow, and events like “back to school” nights just remind me of what being a parent is all about.
