Back in the day school started the day after Labor Day. I grew up in Matthews/Charlotte and they had a Labor Day festival every year. I still remember riding the carnival rides at dusk thinking about starting school early the next morning. The children start school tomorrow and I don't know what I'm going to do with two mornings a week without them. Well, I think I can fill that time rather well but you know what I mean. I have been so used to having a little buddy with me that it will be strange to be able to complete a task without "help". It will be nice to have my chores complete so that when the children are home, we can play.
Say a prayer for David. He is not happy about school. He likes being my buddy and doesn't like to be away from me. We went to meet his teacher on Thursday and he cried the whole time. I sat in the room with him in my lap and he still cried. I do love his teachers and I feel very confident leaving him there. He will have "happy feet" (music and movement) once a week and chapel. They have theme weeks with special visitors, crafts, and books. He will have two teachers that are super sweet and they were not phased a bit by his crying last Thursday. Every time I tell David about school, he says "NO!" and he shakes his head. Maybe you should say a prayer for me too. It is so hard to send them to school even when you know it is best. He loves church and loved vacation Bible school this summer. I know once he spends a few days at school he will see how much fun it is and love it too.
If you want to meet for lunch on a Tues or Thurs....give me a call.
