The Second Day

Okay. so an update from yesterday and a little about today..

First...thge bus was supposed to drop the kids off at 4:57pm...give or take a few minutes. They FINALLY got there at about 5:30pm. Talk about a LONG day for my babies. (Okay, so they are not really my babies anymore!) They said they had a great day. Caitlin did get into trouble for not sitting on the bus, but toher than that, a good day. Here are a couple of pics of them getting home yesterday.




This morning, we got up,and started our day. I got them ready for school, fed them and we walked to the bus stop. They got to ride the bus to school today. We talked at the bus stop about how to behave on the bus. And we talked about trees and about fall and about listening. And then the bus was there. They gave me a hug and a kiss and climbed on the bus and away they went. I didn't cry yesterday, but today I did. Something about watching my babies climb onto that big school bus and just pull away from me did that. I cried. I can't believe they are going to school. Where did the last four years go? When did my babies grow up? And how did I miss it?

So, for me at least, the second day has started MUCH harder than the first one. I sure hope this gets better! Right now I am missing them like crazy!
