"Back to school" today

These are two pages from What to Look For in Autumn, one of the books WOlfie and I read together come this time of year. I am sharing the picture today because, as you probably have guessed, it is back to school for Wolfie today, and it is meant to rain a lot. Not unlike many of the first days of the school years from my own childhood. I remember that it did not always rain, but I do remember the rainy ones more. I think this image pictures it perfectly. Today is a melancholic day for me: not so much because the holidays are over, but because Wolfie grows up way too fast for my taste.
