We made it!

The first week of school was hectic, to say the least! The kids had a great first day and were excited to go back for the second day. Luckily, one of Callie's best friends is in her class again this year, so it's been a really easy adjustment for her.  Wyatt instantly clicked with a little girl named Aubrey and the teacher said they have been inseparable from the very first minute.  In fact, she assumed that they already knew each other outside of school.  Their favorite part of kindergarten was getting to eat lunch in the cafeteria. 

Callie started cheering twice a week and Wyatt also started playing football.  They both have games every Saturday so we are screwed for free-time on weekends too.  With me working, and Brent going back to school, our house is a rancid pigsty of a locker we visit quickly to dump off our crap before heading out again.  I can't believe they started kindergarten this week!  They are so grown up and I miss them so much already!

 

 

 

I was so relieved to pick them up after the first day and so grateful that they were not only still alive after being gone an entire day, but happy!  I berated them for hours with questions but won't be satisfied until I can get in their class as room-mom again and figure out which nuggets are polite, which ones are hell raisers, which ones bring candy, and which ones smell like cheese.

All in all, they had an incredibly happy and successful day!  The rest of the week seemed to build momentum, both in happiness and tiredness.  By the end of the week, we were all completely exhausted and in desperate need of some major relaxation.
