2.5 hours twice a week for just me.....I'm lonely!

It is official! My children are in school. Fash has started preschool. He is gone two days a week, for 2 1/2 hours. I initially thought.....wow....so much time, what am I going to do!? I know it might surprise you.....but those days......fly by.....lightening quick. I do feel like I am forgetting him everywhere I go. I do lots of turning around, looking. I am sure I look like a crazy lady everywhere I go....only difference from before is.....I usually look like a crazy lady totting a child or two. Here is the official day pictures! Does he look excited?

I am so proud of him.......he marched right in, took is back pack off.....and waved goodbye....no looking back. Wasn't exactly the magical moment I hoped to scrap book in my head, but it is exactly what I should have expected. Even his big brother says he admires how brave he is.
In his "cubby" on his first day! His favorite thing at school is to paint. Daddy's office is starting to look like a gallery.
Do you know what this means people? At first I thought it meant I was getting old......then I decided, wow.....I look REALLY good for having kids in school!

I sure do love him the bluest!!

He looks like one happy boy. I liked it when my kids were gone for part of the day, but now that I work well it's still okay, cause they don't call me 100 times an hour.

WOW! That is one cute kid! sure seems excited to be growing up. Not sure if it is totally fair to post these adorable pictures next to the traumatized photos of #1 child.
I would bet that you are making the most of your 2.5 hours twice a week.
Is that a frog in Melissa's bag of salad?

Unknown said...

Brillant. Why didn't I think of that?!

I'd love to keep reading, but Johnny just wiped his ice cream cone on the couch cushion, and I'll have to clean it fast before my husband gets home.

Millie said...

And suddenly... all was right in the world.
