The Report...

So we should have gone inside... after school we picked her up and she says, "You didn't come inside... all the other parents came!" She found her room... went inside and couldn't find her name tag... she thought she was in the wrong room and started to cry! Poor thing I felt awful while she was telling me all this.

Thankgoodness another Mom (whom she knew from last year) saw her and helped her find her name tag and coat hook. Her teacher had done a cursive A and a curly tail l... she's never seen cursive letters. After the beginning trauma she had a great day... loves having a desk and was even more excited on Friday to organize it.

She took a lunch both days and next week wants to try hot lunch. I was actually amazed that she ate her sandwich... you know first time eating away from home... thought she'd just eat her twinkie and crackers!

First thing on Friday's pickup she came running out with a half eaten roll up. Her principal had given all the kids roll ups. She saw that it was Spiderman and ate half and then rolled up the rest... shoved it in her pocket and proudly presented it to Walker... who had a huge grin. Makes you stop and think, "Hey we are doing something right!"

Enjoying the weekend... just hanging out and soaking up the kiddos. Monday things will change I will no longer have a constant companion with me. Walker will be out of school at 10:45 but from 8:15 until then the house will be quiet... empty. I'll spend most of my time shuttling from here to there and will really only have an hour and a half by myself... but it will be quiet... something it never is and something that will be hard to get use to.
