We have now entered our 3rd week into school. So how are we doing? Pretty good! We all hit the "we aren't sleeping in anymore during summer break" wall last week. Waking up at 7:10 verses 9:00 or 9:30 definitely took some adjusting to do.Sydney LOVES her class because it is soooo quiet. No more little 4 and 5 year olds making it noisy. She is happy to be back with her old friend in the 3rd grade.
Camden LOVES his class also. He definitely hit the tired wall. He likes to sleep in so the adjustment has been a little rough in the morning. All that aside he is doing really well. He likes his teachers, friends and centers.
Me.? Well it took about a week and a half to get rid of the empty pit in my stomach. I'm doing much better. I am teaching a art/science elective class at the school the last hour of the day and having a good time. The kids seem to like the projects I bring to them and it gives me something to do while having a little extra "bill" money.
So there you have it. We made it through the first few weeks. I just needed to rip that band aide off of letting Camden go and me being alone. I am still working on finding things to do...fulfilling things to do during the day, but at least the crying has stopped.

First of all sleeping until 9am or later! That never happens in my world! No matter what time my kids go to bed my kids are up before 7am everyday...sigh! So atleast that won't be an adjustment for my kids when school starts.
Your blog is cute but you make me tired with all that you do...Super Mom! Making a tree in the classroom! Come on! Lucky kids to have such a great mom like you!
Well I'm glad your crying has stopped...I still have a few more years before my last one enters school. But it still breaks my heart knowing I only have 1 more year with my Jace...he's such a good little buddy.
