Yes my DSS is starting prep this year .. I didn't realise it would be so hard for me.. I have been around since before he could walk and in a week he will be at school!! I know he will love it though and really thrive. Just in the last 6 months he has learnt so much, so I can only imagine what he will be like at school.. The sad thing is for us is that when he is at school we will only have him from Fridays to Mondays now, cos his school is about half an hour away for us and I will have TAFE so our time will be fairly limited.. So yes I am scared and emotional and I am not even his Mum!!
