Monday, February 4th my house suddenly got rather quiet again...the kids went back to school. Wade, Jessica and Meagan were rather nervous, but stuck together and with Cody took the bus to school and quickly found out going to middle school isn't so scary after all. And they all came back very excited...their shirts don't have to be tucked in at all times this year. Yeah!!
I took Brooke and Brett to school at 8:30. Brett came home all excited because he got his name on the smiley face. We thought he'd been very well behaved because it was the highlight of his day....but then he told us nearly everyone got their name on the smiley face. But wow, that really made an impression on him. Brooke was just happy to see her old teacher back again as well as her good friends whom she hadn't seen all summer since they belong to Rockingham church.
In the afternoon Travis had his first day of Kindy. No separation anxieties coming from him, he was so excited. When he came home he kept asking me to sit down with him so he could tell me about his day at kindy. He sang songs, and knew Holy, Holy, Holy but not the one about "love, love, love". He did painting and Mrs Hordyk told him a story about Jim and the pool... Lots of excitement for a 4 year old.
And me, well, I didn't suffer from empty nest (yet) because I still had Nathan to look after. So we made dinner and went for a nice swim in the pool...
