Hi decogirl,
Welcome to the forums! I'm sorry to hear about your sadness over your daughter starting school. It's been a long time for me, but I can remember being a little sad when my kids started too. But it passed in time. Sky's idea about joining the PTA, or volunteering to help out in your daughter's class is an excellent one. That will keep you close to her and busy at the same time.
Well, I'm glad you found the forums, and I hope you get the same love and support that I've gotten here. It's a wonderful group here that keeps me in line
All my best,
Greg
