The School Parking Lot   Here I was sitting waiting for our Owen to come out after school today.  I walk to the front doors of this lovely school and they dismiss the children from youngest to oldest.  So our boy is one of the first groups to leave.  As I sit here, waiting for my time to emerge from my car, I am flooded with memories.  SO SO many.   This was Jacks elementary school from prek to 8th grade.  We struggled man, hard hard.  But we also had some shining moments.  Now I sit here and wait for my Owen who has ALL shining moments.  We leave school with children saying goodbye to him from all corners.  Boys and girls giving him hugs or back bumps for the day complete.  Then he climbs into the car and says it was a good day.  I accept that.  I tell him im proud of him and that is that. There is no dissection of the day, class by class teacher by teacher.  Hes just a regular boy that is happy going home ...
