First day of school, part II

Andrew and Thomas were up before I left this morning.  Our routine requires that I get up about ten minutes earlier than I had been so that I can be out of the way before Andrew needs to get into the shower.  Honestly, it works out well overall.  

Thomas is really looking forward to being back at school today.  I hope that lasts.  Some of the rules and restrictions that are currently in place seem very draconian.  I've been working in a school for two months, and things have gone fairly well.  Some of the requirements seem so "big brotherish" that I remarked maybe they should just micro-chip the kids so they would know where they are at all times.  I hope that it isn't so over-bearing and overwhelming that it makes Thomas, or any other child, overly anxious.

It's certainly felt like a weird day, but these are weird times.  I hope they both have a great day!  I am looking forward to hearing how things have gone at the end of the day.
