Day one of this school year is in the books. It was really strange for me not to be home, but it gave me an opportunity to not be sad about the end of summer or to miss everyone. At the same time, the class I was in is a remedial reading class, so some of the kids are challenging. We'll get through the next two days though. It is also weird that Thomas isn't home. He has a football scrimmage this evening. Even though he can't play, he is there with the team. I really hate that I haven't been able to hear all about his first day yet. Hopefully it won't be terribly late before they get home.
Robert had an interesting day as well. He gets on the bus at 5:30 A.M. (obscenely early) and because there is no cross country practice today I was expecting him home around 3:00. At 4:00 the phone rang. I hadn't been worried because honestly, it seemed odd he would be home so early. It was Robert telling me that they weren't supposed to ride home on the same bus that had taken them to school in the morning and a bunch of them were on the wrong bus. As he put it, quite an adventure!
Overall, it was a good first day! I'm already tired and not necessarily looking forward to the craziness of the school year, but I'm very grateful that it seems everyone is on track for a good year!
