I can't believe my babies started school. Brooklyn actually started last Thursday and Sydney started today. They are getting so big. Brooklyn is so excited to be in first grade. She loves to read and loves art and I am so thrilled to watch her grow.
I wasn't sure how Sydney would handle her first day of kindergarten in a brand new big school. She surprised me when she just walked right into class. She was a little shy, but she didn't cry. Mommy on the other hand, shed a few tears. I tried not to let her see because I didn't want it to make her sad. She has such a sensitive heart.
Tonight when I put her to bed she told me she didn't want to go to school tomorrow. She's a mama's girl through and through and I think she's having a hard time being away from me. She's got a great teacher, Brooklyn's teacher from last year, so I know she's in good hands. Praying she'll feel differently in the morning.
It hasn't really hit me yet that I'm a mom of grade schoolers. What will I do with all of my free time?
For starters, I will tackle my house. It looks like a bomb went off. I don't function well in a dirty, unorganized home. It actually affects my mood. I hate that. Does that happen to anyone else, or is it just me?
I'm actually excited to be on a schedule and get some routine back in my life. I desperately need to start a new Bible study and get into a good workout routine. My other goal is to get a good meal plan scheduled so I can have healthy and yummy dinners every night. Cooking is not one of my strengths, nor something I enjoy. Hopefully I can change that.
Last but not least, I can't wait to blog more. I am so far behind it's almost overwhelming. It was all worth it though to be able to spend that time with my girls.
Has school started for you? If not, enjoy the rest of your summer.
