So, Tanner is already in his third week of Kindergarten, but it shouldn't surprise you that I'm just now posting this. Tanner's first day of school was a memorable one for sure. Things like parking a mile away from the school and running (carrying my almost 6 year old Tanner) from the car to the parking lot, the community gate crashing on the front bumper of the car, and being with a dear friend while she was in labor, are some of the more memorable moments of the day. Tanner's teacher (Mrs. Farque) is a tiny little lady in her first year of teaching, but she is amazing! He's having a hard time with the long day 7:30AM to 2:30PM. His favorite parts of the day are lunch and science.
Yesterday was Hudson's first day of Preschool. We also had John, Shelly and Lucy over at our house for the day, which ended with swimming at the pool (the kids' favorite activity.) It was hard for us to decide to let Hudson go to preschool this year. I would rather he be home with me, but it has been hard for him while Tanner is at school all day every day, so we definitely did the right thing for him. He already loves going to school and can't wait for day two (he goes twice a week.) He loves learning and I know he will be a big help to his teacher, Mrs. Blay (the mom of one of Tanner's friends.) It's crazy to see them growing up so quickly. I try to treasure this time while they are small and remember it as well as I can so I can think back on when the were at this priceless time of their lives. I am so grateful to be their mother and I know they will be a good example for the kids they are around at school.

That's so hard that first year. It's probably nice to have a little one on one with Maj-Lis, though. I love spending time alone with Lochlin. I think the third child feels left out sometimes, ya know?
Sounds like an eventful first day of school. I guess he does kindergarten all day?? That is long. How are you adjusting? It is hard having Blythe gone all day this year, but it's like you said, I guess you have to treasure the time as much as you can, because it keeps going by faster and faster!! :)
