Well, it's here! The first day of school! Kindergarten for Cole and 3rd grade for Reed, and I think I'm the only one with jitters. Cole woke up excited and happy! Honestly, I know he is ready. I've seen a new level of maturity emerge over the last couple of weeks.
Reed has one of his best buddies in his class, and I know he'll have a great year, too!
It's after the pictures are taken that my jitters begin to form. We're walking up to the bus, a full 6-7 minutes early, feeling certain that it will be late on the first day. Nope! Early! So, then we're running up the hill!
No kiss. No hug. No anything aside from a yelled, rushed, "I love you! Have a great day!"
Then Cole sits down. Alone.
Reed has his buddy.
Cole smiles at me. We make hearts with our hands through the window. I know it will be ok. Someone will sit with him, right???
Then I get home to my husband asking about his name tag. The one in his folder that I forgot to put on him. Ugh!
Upset stomach. Can't wait until 11:55 so I can pick him up and hear all about his day!
