I've joined the ranks

Today as I was driving Savannah to school I had a realization. See to me, Kindergarten isn't that much different than preschool. Savannah's gone for a few hours just like preschool but instead of going to school two days a week, she goes five days. But as I was driving into the carpool lane and looking into the "Mom mobiles" in front of me and behind me I felt a sense of solidarity. That school Mom solidarity. Some moms looked like they had just rolled out of bed, while others were walking their kids to school dressed to the hilt with full makeup and jewelry. You can guess which category I fell into. On many levels I feel too young to have a child in school. Those other moms looked so old. Or maybe just tired. Either way I've joined the ranks. I'm a school mom now and there's no looking back.
