Why It’s Totally Normal to Be Sad AND Excited That School’s Out

Description

As a mom navigating the end of the school year, I'm feeling every emotion possible right now. June has arrived, and I'm simultaneously exhausted and overwhelmed. My nervous system is completely fried from the chaos of May - field days, final projects, teacher gifts, and endless schedules.
I'm processing so many feelings about my kids growing up. My oldest is graduating and heading to college, my sophomore is becoming more independent, and my youngest is finishing sixth grade. Each of them is in a different emotional space, and I'm trying to support them while managing my own complex emotions.
The key is giving myself grace. I'm recognizing that grief and joy can coexist. It's okay to cry in the carpool line and be excited about summer. I don't need a perfect Pinterest summer - boredom is healing for my kids and me. This transition is big, and I deserve space to feel all of it.
