Tomorrow morning is the first day of school. We’ve met and re-met all 3 teachers, organized school supplies neatly in the classrooms, sewed patches on uniforms, and filled backpacks with necessities. Gavin, Guini, and Gemma are all sleeping soundly in their beds now – Gemma sleeping with her “magic confetti” given to her by her new teacher to help her sleep tonight.
This year is going to be (very) different for us, because it is the first year we have all 3 kids in full-day. From 8:00 a.m.-3:30 p.m. it will just be me and Tristan (and Tuppy) here at the house. So very weird to think about. We are definitely headed into an unknown time and I really don’t know how I’m supposed to feel. I’ve got mixed emotions of sadness and happiness for sure. Can any of you other moms relate?

Alyssa starts full day kindergarten next Tuesday. I don’t know what I’m going to do with her gone all day, yet I’m looking forward to having time to get projects done. It’s an odd feeling.

Oh wow Audrey! What a big change for your fam – I know exactly how you feel. I am SO excited to focus on some “me” stuff, but man – I still want them around! Being a mom is hard;)
