Back in the saddle 2

Feeling fine, back to normal, back in the saddle after spring break. I suppose it's normal to be knocked off of the emotional horse sometimes. In fact, one blog reader wrote to say that even though her children are now several years out of college, she still misses her earlier years together with them.

That’s perhaps my next big hurdle: getting it through my head that even when (not if) I survive this first year, the separation anxiety that I feel with this child — and then the next child — is far from over.

Argh.
