School Starts

As this week comes to a close I am excited to take a deep breath and relax this weekend....
Monday was Connor's 1st day of Kindergarten and boy oh boy was he excited to go!

His education was always very important to me and I was seriously considering home school for a long time, till Connor asked to go...


This made my letting him go much, much easier than I anticipated! If he would have been scared or asked to stay home I may have wavered...


He had this beautiful excited smile on his face the entire time.... The bus was about 10 min. late so we were out there for awhile!! 

 

our crew waiting for the bus
Finally the bus was comming...
 

Connor stepped right on up didn't even say/wave goodbye...


I sat and watched the clock all day Monday... then I piled everyone into our car and went and picked him up at school. He was very excited, he described the day as awesome! and even jumped with enthusiasm.

Riley has not been so thrilled... He misses his big brother like CRAZY! he cries and throws himself down and tries to run onto the bus... yelling he wants to go to school with Connor...

3 days of that and then today Thursday he is content to stay home with me... We have been do all kinds of fun "big boy" activities at home like reading the books he wants to read and playing tick, tack, toe... I am learning more about his abilities and that he can't even hold the pencil correctly... Connor being away gives me more one-on-one time with Riley...

I do miss him.. it is quiet here...

While he is away I pray that Connor would choose his friends carefully, for the way of the wicked leads them astray. Proverbs 12:26
Heavenly Father you kow our needs even before we ask you, Lord, and you promise to work in all things for the good of those who love you. Handpick each one of Connor's teachers, and surround him with classmates of your choosing.
Matthew 6:8; Romans 8:28

This Friday My in-laws are picking up my kiddo's and spending the weekend with them, so I will have some time to process my thoughts...

What a week!
