And they're off

Yesterday was the first day of school for my kiddos and it went by in a blur. The kids were excited and ready to go early. Anna would not wear the first day of school outfit I picked out for her and instead choose her own. Fine-whatever. I'm sure this is just the beginning of our clothes discussions.

Yesterday was Dylan's first day of Kindergarten. He was mostly excited to ride the bus. I asked him afterwards about his day and our discussion went like this:

Me: How was school?

D: Fine

Me: What did you do?

D: Nothing

Me: Did you have fun?

D: Not that much

Me: Did you make any new friends?

D: My mouth is tired-I don't want to talk anymore.

{Spoken like a true man. I bet Mike wishes he could say that to me sometimes too :) }

So I figured it went alright. Today he was up at 6:30 am, dressed and looking for some breakfast, so there must have been something fun going on at Kindergarten.

I dropped them off at the bus and went home to my completely empty home. I'm not gonna lie-it felt awesome and also a little lonely. But just when I was getting used to it, it was time to go pick up the little guy.
