Second day of school..............What a "lovely" day.

Bedtime last night should have been an indication of how things were going to go today! Olivia REFUSED to get her stuff ready for school saying "I am NOT (this word said screaming) going back to school!" Lovely I thought. Things are going to go just "great!"

I get up at 6:45, shower and dress. 7:00am I start getting the kids up, She refuses to get out of bed.......I have to carry her to the dinning table to eat....which she refuses to do. Lovely I though.

8:00am we start walking to school. (a 7-8minute walk at most). We get have way there and she refuses to walk. Steve has to carry her. Lovely I thought.

8:10 we arrive at school. She refuses to hang her backpack up on the hook out side her class. I hang it....Lovely I thought.

8:15 the bell rings and she not only refuses to line-up, but starts SCREAMING....Lovely I thought.

8:17 she WILL NOT let go of me.......Her teacher and I are physically having to PEEL her off me. Lovely I thought.

8:18 I say goodbye, turn my back and leave the playground. Oh, but not before no less than 6 mothers say "I'm so sorry." Lovely I thought.

8:19 Emily starts screaming she wants Livie. Lovely I thought.

11:35 Back to school to pick-up. Kids come out and Tyler says "Mommy the teacher wants to talk to you." Lovely I thought.

11:40 "An hour and a half!" the teacher says to me as I approach. Lovely I thought.

Well, back to school on Monday....................Lovely!!!!!!!!!!!!

First day of KINDERGARTEN!!

YIKES!!! I can't believe I have two kindergartners!!!! Today was their first day, and aside from a few tears from ME, they LOVED it!!!! They can't wait to go back! They each made a new friend which I am so thankful for. I was really worried about them starting at a new school and not knowing anyone. What's really neat for them is that they are in the exact same classroom both Steve and I had when we were in kindergarten. It's weird going back into the classroom as an adult.....it seemed SOOO much bigger when I was 5!!!
