Monday was the sixth “first day of school” for my son, Jareth, and possibly the final one in which I got to drive him.
We sent Jareth to the preschool in Encampment and, when it came time to choose a school, we opted for Encampment K-12 as he already had a number of friends. Since kindergarten, it has been a tradition for me to drive Jareth to school and walk with him into the building. It is something I have tried not to take for granted, understanding that it won’t be long before he’d rather not have his father take him to his first day of school.
This year, the tradition was nearly upended...
