As for the parents we are doing well. Aaron stayed home in the morning to see Owen off. I did very well. I did get some tears welling up when he was lined up and heading inside. Owen did give me a nice hug and then after that got a sad face so it was hard for me to watch him. There were two Mom's there that were also sending their youngest off to school and they were holding it together so that helped. I am sure my moment will come. Maybe a little bit now as I write this and the house is so quiet. I miss my little buddy. It reminds me a bit of when Grace was off to school and I was by myself then. Just another chapter in life. I actually had a big realization when I got the call last week about the position as an aide sub for the school district. I had my moment then!
As for Grace she has had an awesome start to the year. Besides the bus being a 1/2 hour late to the bus stop! She was late for band class but everything worked out. They are supposed to be dropped at the middle school and shuttled over on another bus to the intermediate school but because they were late they missed the shuttle. Her driver was nice enough to drive them over to the intermediate school! She really likes her teacher, so far, she says she is very nice. Grace also seems to have a nice mix of classmates. She has several girls she knows and one girl is a friend she made in 4th grade that she really became good friends with, yay! I also know her Mom on a first name basis which is always a big bonus. She also told me she is sitting next to Jace which I think might be a boy we had teased her about a few years back that she might of had a little crush on, wink, wink! Dad will have fun with that one!
Overall it has been a great start to the school year, I can't complain! Now, what to do with myself?! Time to head to the grocery store I guess. A mother's job never ends but I'm not complaining!
Owen waving goodbye :( |
