First Day of School

I love the first day of school, both as a parent and as a teacher. Today one part of me, the mom part of me, got to take my kids to the first day of school in their new school.

They were at times excited and nervous. I felt so bad for them this morning as they were standing in the lines with their new classmates, not knowing a single person. They have gone from being the most popular kids in their grade to not knowing anyone. They were troopers however and off they went. Mat a little more confident than Mike. Mike was so nervous that he tracked me down in the cafeteria 30 minutes into the day to make sure that I was paying for their lunches.

As I went through out my day I kept expecting the phone to ring saying that someone had had a meltdown, it never rang.

When I picked them up, both teachers told me that they did great. Mat got a little nervous when he had to leave to go to the bathroom because he didn't know where it was. Mike did awesome, he teacher said he was great.

So another school year has started and so far we are off to a great start.
