This is a tear jerker. I would like to tell you that this is the only time you will feel like crying for him. Maybe it'll be along time before you will have to feel like it again. Sometimes I think we moms may feel it worse than our kids. But anyway hang in there and I know that Andrew is very lucky to have good parents and is probably on to other things.

But I do believe they will both have an advantage in the long run--it is just a disappointment in the present moment. Won't be long until they forget all about it and enjoy being the "elders" of the class with distinct advantages all around!
