On his first day of kindergarten, I stood behind the gate crying while this boy was laughing. Some of the other kids were wailing, some were rolling on the floor but mine waved like someone that has been waiting for the day that they can escape me. Well, today had some similarities to his first day of KG.
Today,the van came to pick Samuel for his fist day of highsch. As the van drove off, I jumped in my car like the umbrella mum that I am, drove straight to his school, walked to the bus drop off and waited for his arrival. As he squeezed himself out of the back of the car, tears came from deep within……we did it…..we really did this. ool. It’s a journey that took alot of ache, pain and victories to get to……we did it💃🏾💃🏾💃🏾
Our highschool journey may not be like the rest of the students. We may take longer than everyone else (he can be there till his 21st birthday), we may have challenges academically…..all things may also go as I have it in my head where in 4 years we graduate and get ready for higher institutions……..whatever the case may be….we are ready……the journey of 4…6 years has started for us…….for every huddle, experience has though us that we can jump over it..for every wall, we know we can break it down…..for every closed door, we are aware that we have the about to fling the door open.
Thank you to everyone that has supported us…thank you..everyone that has doubted us..I roll my eyes for you 🤣🤣🤣(you thought I was going to thank them? NEVER!😁)
Its gonna be a fun ride with this boy of mine……my husband, myself and people that care for Samuel’s success are ready.
