From moments of considering to have a baby to the first moments of life your little angel plays their part. Their little red face is all scrunched up, and the sounds that voice from her puckered little mouth are the most precious notes you could ever hope for. You ache any time the nurses take her for tests, and you deny offers from well meaning friends and family who offer to hold her while you get some sleep. All you want to do is be with your new baby, and you’ll forego food, water and sleep to do just that!

Parenting is often a thankless job. It is a difficult job, and a job that keeps parents up at night. From crying babies to whining toddlers, defiant teenagers to aloof young adults, parents constantly struggle to understand and positively affect the lives entrusted them. But in the end, it is a job every parent will say is the most amazing and wonderful adventure imaginable. It is the smiles, first steps, first homeruns, family trips, hugs and kisses that outshine the less appealing aspects of parenthood, and it is for these moments parents gladly lump the rest.

For many, it starts with the first day of kindergarten. For others, it begins a year or two earlier, with preschool. For all, it is a momentous occasion that marks the beginning of a learner’s journey that will never end. It's late summer, and it school is about to begin!

Eager little kids follow anxious parents through stores, buying back-to-school clothes, backpacks and sneakers. They get fresh haircuts, take extra bubbly baths the night before and are sent to bed extra early to ensure a good night's sleep. The next morning they're off to school. Be it kindergarten, middle school or college, the routine is mostly the same. May be by the time they’re in high school, the bubble bath is out of the question, and they can borrow the car and do their own shopping, and by college, parents can only wonder about that good night’s sleep, but these details are only minor. The first day of school is a blend of excitement, anxiety and curiosity for all students and parents as well.
