My sweet Devin is now 5 and will be going to school in the Fall. His mom is a teacher, so she doesn't need care for the Summer. Yesterday was his last day He and his older brother and mom made me this awesome card and also gave me a cool sweatshirt with my son and daughters high school team on it. Of course I cried! I will miss this little guy!

Oh how nice! Well, not that he's leaving. But he looks like such a cutie and proud of his card to you.
I lost 2 teachers' kids a couple weeks ago and they were some of my best dcks. I will sorely miss them as they start school and grow up without being in their lives.

Awwww how bitter sweet! I get close to my kids too. I live in a state that allows 6 preschool age children and 5 school-age. So my kids come back. I still offer school age care because it's still working out....for now at least! I do loose teacher's kids tho!

That is so SWEET!!
What a thoughtful dcp. So nice when we know we were appreciated.

It's the hardest part of our job I think. (Losing the kids we adore)
