First Day
Yesterday was the first of many things in our new life, we officially moved in. By this I mean Sunday Night was our first night in our new house and Monday was the first day for the kids (going to school) and hubby going to work. The two younger ones and I stayed home unpacking and assembling dressers, bookshelves and a few workbooks.
Due to only having one car I was unable to do the whole, “walking your kids into school on the first day” so I felt pretty weird and lousy by it. It is strange, they’ve been home since the beginning of December and went back all day yesterday. By all day I mean they start at 9 and end at 4. I had never heard of this but it works out great for them, except because of coming home later it is darker faster so there is no playing outside.
BalletGirl came home with a friend’s phone number and SoccerBoy told me he made friends with four boys and a girl so this is both great news. I honestly wasn’t worried about BalletGirl, but SoccerBoy I wasn’t sure of.
Don’t think everything went smoothly though. lol. It’s me, how can it? School called right after I came back in for putting the kids on the bus (first time ever doing that) and they told me they needed the lease. Without it kids couldn’t start. Akkk. Okay I had it, got it during the weekend…but no car and it was too cold to walk the kids (two younger ones) all the way up to the school. They pulled the kids from the bus and had them sit in the office until things got worked out. They’d call me later when they knew what to do. Within 10 minutes I was called and asked if I was okay with the principal driving over and picking it up.
WOW! Talk about cooperative and a blessing. Yes! That’s great. I thanked her like a million times. Kids were sent to class and I hear that my little girl (BalletGirl) chattered away the entire time in the office. lol. She is my social butterfly.
The principal came took it and brought it back after she copied it. I think I’m going to LOVE this school. As for students, there are less than 300.
I did wait for furniture to get here and we bought a bunch over the weekend and were told see ya monday. By 8 p.m. I called, I was mad, where was it. Apparently they meant Monday, the 21st. lol.
