School started today.
I begged and pleaded with the Peanut to let me home school.
He said, "No."
I begged and pleaded for him to stay home just one more week.
He said, "No."
I begged and pleaded for him to stay home just one more day.
He said, "No."
He was so excited. He got up the very second I woke him. He couldn't even eat his favorite donuts for breakfast.
He was ready 20 minutes early.
I tried to get him to wear something different for his first day... knowing that I would be taking pictures, but he insisted on wearing this outfit. I quit the argument right away (for once) because I didn't want to ruin his first day with a bad morning.
It was good to see all his friends and all of our friends.
They comforted me.
Then I came home ALONE.
The house has NEVER felt this quiet.
I walked around and whined like a puppy. The puppy's were looking at me weird. But then a friend called and had me run down the street to see some cool stuff she was making. She saved the day!
And so it begins... THIRD grade.
