Dekker has been doing well with school. His first day was a hard sell, and for some reason, he cried when I dropped him off on Tuesday. But he is always chomping at the bit to get there! He really likes school! He’s slowly telling us more about what he does in the day, and he even told me the name of someone this morning, which is HUGE! It may sound small, but there is progress, for sure.
In fact, I think the biggest adjustment has been pick ups and drop offs. I’ve always been lucky enough to have someone drop by my house and sit with my kids while I take Dekker to or from school. This morning was my first time bringing them all along. While it went smoothly and everyone was just fine, its showing up now. Rowan is DONE. Bawled his way through an early lunch as is down for his nap over an hour early. But that is actually going to be well timed, considering his nap will also be cut short, since I’ll have to load everyone up to pick Dekker up from school. I genuinely think this is going to be the hardest part about adjusting to school.
That all being said, today is picture day!
Since I have no idea if Dekker will actually smile for the photographer, here is what he looks like today! Wearing his favorite colors, rocking a new haircut, smiling sweetly. Here’s hoping it all went smoothly this morning!
