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.
Oh gosh, tell me about it. My grandchildren are 15, 13 and 9 now. I still remember them as babies. I hope Wolfie enjoys the new school year.
ReplyDeleteI don't ever remember it raining on the first day of school for me, although I suppose it must have happened once or twice.
ReplyDeletethey grow up way too fast. i m lucky that my kids still live close to me.
