Somehow this day has arrived. Here is Ethan on his first day at school. He showed no apprehension as we trundled through the throngs of weepy camera-toting parents, and blinked back the tears when we left. We had to do the same because we couldn’t show him how we were really feeling today. I had three peeks around the doorway after he thought we had left, and he was making a really good fist of it. He’s a brave kid.
Who knows? Maybe we will be back down at the school today and bringing him to hospital to see his new sister. What a week.
