Dear Quinn, Starting school

 

Dear Quinn,

I wonder where the years have gone

as I tuck you up snug in bed.

We hug and say noche mi amor

and I kiss you on your little head.


Tomorrow's a big day,

it's off to school for you.

With lots of friends to make

and a world of things to do.


Your days will be filled with learning

not just the two of us anymore.

You are so excited and happy

and I'm sure that you will soar.


Be kind, be happy

the teachers will help you with the rest.

Have fun, take care

and Jed says remember yellow house is the best.


The day is upon us

Oh Quinn, how time has flown.

I'm so very proud of you

and all the ways in which you've grown.


As I watch you march through those gates

I wonder if I'll get a backward glance.

Or whether you'll be too quick and eager

and I won't stand a chance.


So, I'll hug you one more time

and then wave you on your way.

Eager to hear all about your news

you want to tell at the end of the day. 


I hope you have a lovely time

with lots of fun and play.

And I'll be there waiting when you're done,

with a kiss at the end of the day. 


Love always,

Mummy x
