Yes that's right, it's super hard to believe but my lovely children are off to college.
It seems just yesterday I was crying over another negative pregnancy test (yet also seems a lifetime ago so how does that work?!) and now here I am proudly waving them off to college.
I'm super excited for them, truth be told.
As a single mum of two little babies I did spend a lot of time in a panic. What if something happened to me? What if they had no one to take care of them? Not only did I want to be there every step of the way but they needed a parent to bring them up too! Honestly, there is this long story where I used to sit in bed at night trying to take my pulse as I could feel my heart racing.
Three times I ended up in the A and E being tested for heart issues. I now know this was purely anxiety. I refuse to say 'only' as anxiety and 'only' do not belong in the same sentence. If you are a sufferer you will know that! Anyhow, it wasn't without leaving scars on my health but I'm generally ok. Enough to be a reasonably good mum (I hope the twins would agree).
My time at college (I had 7 years of it during my lifetime) was so much more amazing than school. I hated school. Bullies and silly people made life miserable. So I was pleased to get my teeth stuck into college.
My two have loved school but are super excited for college.
I'm excited for them too!
Much love
Louise xoxo
