The first day of SCHOOL!
I woke my BABY up and took him to SCHOOL!!
My BABY!
I didn't cry at all. Of course, J and my Mother-in-Law were also in the car so I didn't want to cry in front of them. Haha. I held it together.
After I dropped him off I came home, made a shopping list and went to Walmart. Alone. As I wandered through the isles of Walmart, in the middle of the morning, Alone, I began to think. Think about my BABY off at school. Think about how he wouldn't be home with me during the day all the time anymore. I missed him.
I started to feel some anxiety and also a little panicky. I had to slow down and take some deep breaths. A panic attack in the middle of Walmart, not really what I needed.
I managed to make it through just fine though. I came home and made Kid a cake. Green inside and out. Green is his Favorite color! I had intended to make it in the shape of a crayon but I ran out of time.
He had a blast! The first thing he said to me when I picked him up was "I painted!" :)
I heard all about the rest of the day. Kids and playing outside, swinging on the swings, eating lunch, Ms. Hanna (Teacher), painting, reading books. I'm so glad he had a great time!
Now, we just have to do this for nine more months! I'll be used to getting up early by then, right?

I'm glad he had such a great time on his first day! And it sounds like you did well. Distraction is the key to so many tough days...
Yay! I'm glad his first day went great! I would have cried! Go you!
