Today was the first day of school and it was a wonderful experience. It is a little bittersweet in the sense that I truly enjoyed spending summer with my son. It is fun to sleep in and stay up a little later as well as partake in lots of adventures together.
Regardless of your age, there always seems to be a little jitters related to the introduction to a new school year. There is nothing better than being greeted after school with your child beaming with a smile. He hopped into the car and said, "I love all of my teachers and they all have 20 years of experience teaching!"
My son is lucky because he exchanged his class schedules with his friends and realized that he has a good friend in each one of his classes which is a wonderful blessing.
The most challenging part of the day was waking up early especially when our kiddos seem to need extra sleep. Mine along with his friends all sleep 10-13 hours per night during the summers as they are all in the middle of growth spurts!
Hoping that all of your children had a wonderful beginning of a new school year!
