last day

Filler - this photo breaks my heart. Her best friend moved away. This was the walk home from her last day at school. My girl has been having a hard time since she left. AND her teacher was her best friends mother so she has lost that too. Sigh. I know she will get through it but I wish it didn't have to be so hard.
Ah, what a poignant shot. How sweet that they are walking in hand in hand and I'm sure she must be very sad having lost her friend, but hopefully she will make a new best friend soon. She will love this shot when she is older.

@suesmith I'm sure she will. And this girls mother and I are quite good friends so we will stay in touch. I have a collection of photos of the two of them that I intend to continue to add to. Thank you. x

such a huge deal when you are a kid, double whammy, I remember crying when my fav teacher left when I was 8!

Oh bless her, so sorry to hear she's feeling so sad about her friend and teacher moving away. A lovely shot of them together, hope they stay in touch

Wonderful photo and memory for your daughter - two things for sure - one, she will make new friends and two, she will always remember her first best friend.

Powerful shot. I know what you mean...I watched my daughter nurse a broken heart for similar reasons at the age of 5....nine years ago and I still choke at the memory.

Great moment you captured. She will always remember her little friend.

@kali66 @sugarmuser @deeganp @jocasta @angiec @tommiel Thanks everyone. Even coming back to this shot to thank you makes me tear up. This little girls mother and I are very good friends so they will be able to stay in touch...but we do miss them terribly day to day. I have so many photos of them and when we visit I will continue to take them. I hope to make them a book when they are older.

how sad! I know this is life and people move for different reasons but it is still really upsetting when your close friends go further away from you!
