Today is Tyler's first day of pretend 7th grade. Only the 7th graders go to school today to see how their days will run and to work on opening their lockers with out the embarrassment of the older kids watching. It's only a half day, so it's really like he's in kindergarten for the day. At least that's what I'm telling myself.
Like the awesome mom I am, I forgot the camera. I'm telling myself it's okay because really today isn't the actual first real day of school, right?
The other kids have been in school for a few weeks now and I still don't feel like they're back in school. I haven't had a moment to myself yet, which is what I was looking forward to. Today is supposed to be the day I a free to do as I please, but it's filled with grocery shopping, oil changes and inspections, laundry and cleaning. What happened to sipping dt. coke while enjoying a chat with all the other moms who's kids are gone all day. Laughing and enjoying the "free" time. No wonder I don't see those moms out on their porches wasting the day away. I guess I was sorely mistaken on the magic that I expected to happen when they all started school.
Or...maybe that will happen next week when "real" 7th grade starts.
