Everyone made it through the first week, and we managed to find a way to have everybody where they needed to be at the time they needed to be there. I was a little astounded that we managed to make it work, but it did!
Robert is really enjoying high school. After all of the trust issues from last year, I am struggling with giving him the freedoms that I think high school students should have. It helps tremendously that Andrew is at school with him everyday. The other teachers have reported to him that they have enjoyed having Robert in class...hopefully that continues throughout the year!
Catherine is definitely entering the middle school years. Ugh. She hasn't pulled any major stunts yet and I'm grateful, but that the same time I just can't stand the attitude. I know that this is just the beginning, but I also know she's a good kid at heart.
Thomas has so far managed to show more responsibility than last year. He seems so grown up at age ten. Having him on the elementary schedule is such a pain, so I've tried to make a deal with him that he can move to sixth grade, but that is as old as he is allowed to be. He is not on board with this plan.
The weekends just feel so short during the school year. We are grateful that this weekend is relatively unscheduled with just a few fun activities because Monday morning will roll around again very quickly!
