This morning, you came to my room already dressed & wanted to snuggle for a few minutes before we got ready. You missed Daddy because slept until almost 8:20a, but you were very happy and had plenty of rest. You brushed your teeth packed your “10 things about me bag” & asked me for piggy tail French braids so we did! We left home on time and got to school perfectly on time. You were so happy and even let me take “just one picture” in front of the manatee. When you walked up the steps to the gate, the school resource officer recognized you and said, “you are going to Ms. Wolleon’s class right?” You said yes and confidently walked with him. You blew me a kiss, waved & shouted “bye Mom! I love you!” What more could I want? You are happy & excited! Then I cried in the car for a minute. I guess I’m making up for not crying on Tuesday!
You got to present your bag of 10 things about you to your class. When I picked you up, I asked you if anyone liked your things & you said no! I was cracking up. The conversations with you these days are extremely entertaining, but if you see I have the video on you put your hand up to block it and stop talking. So these days, I have a lot of videos of the ceiling because I want to record everything you say. It’s all hilarious. Below is an excellent example. You were on fire today!!! lol!
The car line was much better at pick up today. It only took me about 15 minutes to get to you. When I pulled up, your face lit up and when Ms. Nowaski opened the car door, you looked at me beaming and shouted “HI MOM!!!!” as you climbed in the car. You had a great day and you looked happy and energetic, not exhausted like yesterday. A little sleep works wonders for you!!! You thanked me a hundred times for bringing your favorite charcuterie board as a snack. I wasn’t sure how this was going to go, so I was prepared to head either straight to gymnastics or home, depending on how you felt.
Coach Trey was there today so you worked hoard and did a great job! I was so proud of you. When we left the gym, it was pouring rain! We went home to have dinner and you were snuggling with Harry. You said “Mom, quick, grab the camera” because you & Harry were saying Cheeeeese! Of course, I jumped at the opportunity!
After we ate you told me how you had “Mac & cheese, a round bread and a healthy milk” for lunch… I said did you buy it? She said “no I didn’t buy it because kids don’t have any money!” ? I said well then did you steal it? you replied no I didn’t steal it because grown ups have all the money. I was trying not to laugh. You told me you got chemical food & I about died! I checked the menu & saw Mac & cheese was a choice. I just wanted to be sure if I owed money I want to pay. I checked with Ms. Wolleon to make sure I got the story straight lol. I also really don’t want you to buy their food. I prefer you to eat what I’ve packed.
After dinner, we dropped Daddy off at man night, climbed in my bed, read a bunch of little books and you were out before 9p. You had a wonderful day. You were happy all of the time I was with you and that makes me so happy. I hope school continues to be so fun for you!
I love you so much!
