Second Day & Traffic

 Second Day of School. It was much easier for me the second day, but still hard. I get to walk her into the school the first three days and then after than she will be dropped off at the door. It made my heart happy that she wanted to hold hands all the way to her class. I know I'll forever remember this moment.
This day I went in the classroom with her, but I just stepped back & watched her put away all her things. When did she get so grown up? 

She was so excited to introduce me to her friends she made on the first day. We said our goodbyes & NO tears from me! I was very proud of myself. I had a busy morning of errands, but at one point during them I had a tear roll down my face. (I know. I'm a drama queen.) I'm so use to having to drag her along with me for every little thing & I'm not use to the quiet. I'm sure eventually I'll be embracing the peace, but this morning I was a little sad. (So of course that meant I went to Target & spent way too much money!) 

Tuesdays will probably be a little crazy for us. I got to the car rider line 40 mins early and I was the 10th car in line. Crazy. I know. I'm using this time to catch up on some reading. I have a book club meeting next week & it was a good excuse to start reading the book! 


We have ballet scheduled for Tuesdays right after school and I'm not sure if we are going to be able to keep her in it. We completely missed the class because of traffic. I'm going to try going a different route next week & also just hope that she gets bumped from the wait list for a later class. Addison was pretty bummed about not making it to class and it stinks she missed the first one. We took a "first day" of ballet picture anyways & hopefully we can actually make it to the class next week! 

Thankfully so far, packing lunch has been pretty easy. We had Hawaiian Pulled Pork for dinner & she requested it in her lunch. My favorite bento supplies has definitely been the baran. They are so cute, add a little fun, & help separate the food. 

Cameran has been working late the past two days and has been getting home right when its time for her to be in bed. Normally, I would just keep her up so they can hang out for a bit, but since she has to wake up so much earlier its been hard. He manage to make it home right in time for bedtime story.
