Aw. Finally soemones in the spotlight who should be! That was adorable, almost made me cry.

*~sniffle- snot~*. Apron strings are the hardest ones to cut... I think you may have plucked those of every parent who has watched their child leave for the very first day of school...
Even though you were writing about your own, I think you may have let a lot of people know that it's okay to let go- even just for a little while.
Wonderful picture of a very beautiful child, a very deep bond between the both of you, and a hopeful heart of your offspring's sucesses. This has to be your best one! ;-) Keep writing!!
