Hannah's first bus ride!






Hannah has been talking about riding the bus with Jakob for months now. And this morning she got on the big yellow bus!! She had such a good first day, she came home and told me that she was helping some of the other kids in her class because they were sad!! How sweet is she! Hopefully today will contiune on the good pattern. Me on the other hand I was a wreck. This morning was harder than yesterday. When that bus pulled off I felt like I was punched in the stomach...No matter how many books you read or how many Oprah shows(HA!HA!) you watch, nothing prepares you for any of this stuff! Of course you don't want to be upset in front of your kids because school is a good thing, it's a very good thing...Can someone please tell that to my aching heart! So next week when I go back to work, none of my children will be there. They are all in BIG school now!! God help me!

Ok so you make me want to cry. I am so not looking forward to Jeffrey starting school in just 15 days!!!!! I was hoping to read this and you say oh it isn't as hard as you would think it is. Thanks Heidi my stomach is turning already. It will be in knots on his first day. MY BABY!! Would it be horrible to keep him home with me forever??? :(
But on the other hand GO HANNAH for having such a easy transition. It is good that she wasn't scared at all! It should make you feel a lot better.
