Summer is over and the babies started school! Addison was so excited! She missed school over the summer and was looking forward to going back. I knew this would be a great year for her because she did so great last year and because she already knew half the class! I'm thankful because even though the teachers were knew, it made her transition so easy. She has had awesome days so far and I really don't worry at all when I drop her off. Addison kept telling me on the way to school and the days prior that she was going to watch over her brother. She said if the big boys on the play ground were rough with him, she would take care of him. She would play with him and push him on the swings slowly, and make sure he wasn't sad. Sure did make this mama's heart warm to know I must be doing something right! She was very disappointed when I picked her up the first day because she did not see him on the play ground. (The 2 year olds don't normally play with the 4 year olds which is very understandable.)
Weston had a good first drop off. Really didn't care that I was leaving. We talked up school so much and kept saying how fun it was and he was getting to play with new friends and meet teachers. He was so excited to wear his backpack. In the class room he was excited about all the new toys. His favorite is the train table. (mommy is really trying to talk daddy into one for christmas!) I left him there and the only person tearing up was me. When I picked him up they said he did great all day long until the first one or two kids left and then he started crying for mommy. Yesterday he fussed and started to cry at drop off and they said he cried off and on throughout the morning but was ok. At one point when he was crying they took him to see Addison in her class and she loved on him. (Hearing that really made me feel good that they are so sweet with him!) When he saw me come in to get him he just broke down and started crying. He immediately wanted his backpack and to get Addison so we could go home! This morning's drop off was the worst. Really breaks my heart to have to hand him off crying with big tears and saying "mama!!!". I went through a few rough weeks with Addison. I encourage other moms who go through this and I know it will get better. But it's still REALLY hard for me. I have been going to the gym and getting things done at home which is nice, but I will not really start to enjoy my time until I can stop worrying about him every minute. I wish it wasn't so tough on me. haha But we will get through it. Probably him before I...
