First Day of School

I have been a complete mess this past weekend because, yes that's right, Nainoa started school last Monday. I really can't believe how much he is growing up. I had a complete break down when I dropped him off. I was trying to be all strong and say bye in the most cheery way while Nainoa is bawling saying, " I WANT TO HUG MOMMY!!!!!!" Knife in heart.

I think he had a good time. When I asked him if he wanted to go to back to school he said yes. It works out perfect because the Childcare Campus is at my school so we both go to school together on Mondays and Wednesdays. The teacher is awesome. She strongly believes children learning through play, she teaches the kids conflict resolution and uses redirection.

Today is our second day and I am anticipating another teary goodbye. All my mommy friends say it takes at least a month for the crying to stop. Then I'll cry when he doesn't cry for me when I leave! Haaha!

On a personal note, school is hard, challenging, fun and exhausting. My brain is always full and I have no time to blog, talk on the phone, watch Glee or do anything but study. (I am really lucky to have the Lolos here, especially while Eye is on the road for the next 6 weeks) I got A's so far on all my tests. Studying time for me is at 5:00 am when the house is quiet and everyone is asleep. Today I don't have a test so I thought I would blog and keep everyone updated at 5:30 in the morning!
