HOMESICK

Because you are a big girl now and big girls go
to school all day. Jay goes to school all day
and he will be there in the building with you
Mom, how come I have to go to school for the
whole day?

Mary, honey, you shouldnt worry about school.
You have your brand new green outfit on. And
your nice new backpack is filled with all your
school supplies from Mrs. Herberts list. You
get to fill up your very own desk with those
supplies!
I get my own desk?!
4
Yes you have your very own space in Mrs.
Herberts class, just like you have your own room
here at home!
5
That must be my teacher! Wow she doesnt seem
that bad, she actually seems kind of nice!
6
Now Meredith, you be a good girl and remember to
have fun! I will be here right at 330 to pick
you up! I love you!
7
Hey Meredith! Yeah this year is going to be so
much fun! I heard that Mrs. Herbert is really
nice!
Hi! I didnt know we were in the same class!

Dont worry Meredith. Your mom will be back at
330 to pick you up! I know you miss her right
now, but you will see her before you know it!
Why dont you go back to your desk and see if
you can do any reading.
Mrs. Herbert? II.I. miss mom.

Meredith, I have a great idea for you. Today
when you go home, I want you to find a special
picture of you and your mom. Put it in your
backpack and bring it in tomorrow. When you get
to school tomorrow we will put the picture in
your pencil box that is in your desk. Whenever
you feel sad, I want you to take the picture out
and look at it. Then you can put it away and
continue with your schoolwork.
11
Okay Mrs. Herbert.
12
I miss my mom.
