Today is a mixture of relief and sadness as I do my last ever school run 😕
I miss my little Katie who held my hand, skipped along beside me, and chatted endlessly about her day, and I can’t help wondering where those years went?
It’s got me thinking about how often we’re rushing through life, focused on the next thing on the to-do list, assuming there will always be another school run, another sports day, another bedtime story, another chance.
Then one day you realise that chapter has quietly come to an end.
Not in a sad way, just a gentle reminder to myself to notice the moments while they’re happening. To pause occasionally and soak up the ordinary things that one day become the memories we treasure most.
Today marks the end of one chapter and the beginning of another for both of us.
And whilst I’m looking forward to finally following my own schedule for a change… I’d quite like one more hand-holding, skipping school run too. ❤️
