Well, I will admit that I am a blogging slacker. Seriously. Why have a blog if you only update it once a year? Good grief.
I can't even attempt to try and recap everything that has happened in the past 6ish months. It would be feeble. However, we have had a MAJOR change in the household this past week: Little Man is officially a kindergarten student.
I have to say that so far, I have handled the reality of the situation pretty well. The first day of school, Daddy Mac and I packed up the vancar with our kindy and 4th grade students and hauled them across town to their school.
The school has staff located all over the place to greet students and help direct lost looking families to their correct classrooms. Little Man was more than happy to return their "Good Mornings" with a "Hi! My name is Little Man! I am a kindergartner!" He said it to each and every staff member we encountered. Upon arrival to his new class, he said "Good Morning, Mrs. B.! I am a kindergartner!" A few snaps later with the camera and he was set.
We did walk Goosey Lou up to the third floor where the fourth grade congregates. This was a much quicker process. I managed to snap one last pic before she hit the hallway to gossip with the BFFs.
I cried all the way home. Daddy Mac was no help at all. The Tennessee Grandparents were visiting so I really did not have a chance to process what had just happened....until they left. Holy smokes, it was super quiet around the house.
I don't know what this means for Mama Mac. I feel a bit lost at what my role will be from 8 AM - 3 PM. Going back to a full time job is not an option. Daddy Mac would like for me to hold the course for a while and see what will happen.
Monday is going to be a difficult day for this mama who is preparing for her babies to fly one day...
