Fun day being back on schedule and back to school!
I walked Joel to school today and he held my hand the whole way. When I asked him if he wanted to walk the rest of the way by himself he told me no and that he wanted to walk with me....these are the moments I will absolutely cherish because in about 5 years I will be the most embarrassing person to him lol
Connor and I spent the morning snuggled on the couch before his carpool picked him up. Then I had a meeting with some people to install blackout blinds in my room and in Connor's...cannot wait for that!
I went to lunch by myself today, did laundry, and finished a book I had started reading on the plane. It is happy being alone and knowing my kids are having a fun time at school but also...well...lonely! It is just so weird starting this new chapter of my life where my kids are in school more than they are home with me (sleeping doesn't count!) I feel a sense of freedom but also a sense of loss. I hope I was able to teach my kids how to be respectful and loving while they were with me all of the time. I worry about them and pray for them to be good and joyful while they are away! How I hope they continue to find the joy outside of the home!
I picked up Connor from school and took him to get a haircut. He got his first shampoo in a sink today and the look on his face was priceless! At first he was nervous it was going to be like the shower where his face gets wet, but when the girl at the salon washed his hair he had such a peaceful look on his face and his eyes were rolling into the back of his head lol! That is how I feel when I get MY hair washed....he was so happy!
We had a nice night with our neighbors at our Taco Tuesday restaurant tonight. I am so happy that we are keeping that Summer tradition alive! It is so nice to not cook on Tuesdays and I LOVE catching up with my beautiful neighbors! They are so great and the kids love them as well!
Well, time to head up to bed. I am so thankful that we are back on schedule and that the boys are loving school. We are making more friends and the boys have 2 play dates scheduled this week as well! Feeling very blessed to be where we are!
