School Update

Okay, I really hate to detract from everyone mocking me, but too bad!  So, I can't make up my mind.  I think that's okay.  No, I don't.  Yes, I do.  I'll get back to you on that one!  Anyway, I just wanted to post a few things about my eldest child.  We have now officially made it a full week with Robbie in school.  Jon and I feel like we are living a totally different life than we did a week ago.  It's very strange to have your entire schedule turned upside down.  If we weren't such slackers, it probably wouldn't have been so shocking.  We're just not used to going to bed early (by 11:00, can you believe it?!?) and getting up early (Jon wakes up at 6:00).  But we are adjusting, and we are loving it. Robbie is doing really well.  He seems to be settling in.  He even got his first homework this week.  Are you ready for this?  His homework this week is to write his name on a piece of paper . . . . one time a day.  I hope we can handle that work load.  On a different note, I was walking Robbie in to class today, and a little girl saw him in the hall and came up and tried to say hi.  In my head, I thought, he's too young for this!  Girls shouldn't start saying hi to Robbie for a long time.  I was comforted when Robbie looked at her like she was some sort of crazy person and walked away.  Of course I felt bad for the little girl.  But it IS comforting that my son finds girls icky right now.  Now, if I can just perpetuate that rumor for another 15 years . . . Anyway, that's all from our end.  Emily starts preschool in a couple of week, so I'm sure we'll put up stuff about that.  In the meantime, go back to mocking me.  I'm laughing on the outside, but crying on the inside . . . Nah, just kidding.  I think.  Love you all!
