The smallest, most mundane task can sometimes trigger the biggest, most unexpected reaction.
For me, this week, it was changing the school contact number in my phone.
Something so ridiculously simple… yet suddenly I was emotional.
Because it wasn’t really about changing a number.
It was about realising that my children are growing up.
One starting Key Stage 2.
One starting Key Stage 3.
New schools, new stages, new chapters.
And apparently, deleting an old school number from my phone was enough to make all of that hit me at once.
Motherhood is funny like that.
Sometimes it’s the tiny, ordinary moments that catch you completely off guard. ❤️
