Your First Day

Master Five, today you let go of my hand and walk into a new world. A world you will navigate without me there by your side. I will guide you as best as I can from home, but this is a time that I will always remember in your life, a time when you became more independent and more brave and courageous.

This morning you wouldn't let anyone come into your room and shouted out 'nobody look!' and then you strutted into the kitchen fully dressed in your new uniform. Your big brother quickly ran to you and fixed your collar which made my heart ache and filled me with pride.

My boy, you are ready, I know you are. Even if I feel like I may not be quite ready to let go, I know you will be fine. You will be more than fine.
Kid, you will move mountains.
