Last night was open house for all of the kiddos. Three different schools, and a little over two and a half hours to go through them all. It was exciting, overwhelming, and exhausting all at once.
School starts tomorrow.
I was doing pretty good, until Monday rolled around. I started thinking too much, which turned into worrying too much, which turned into my OCD taking over for the day. Today, I’m still pretty much the same way. I’ve already rearranged the refrigerator twice.
I know the boys will do fine. I just started to worry about Agnes. She was standing up on a chair, and looking out the window, she turned to me and said “my tummy hurts, and I’m sad”, “what happens if I get sad at school?”…
I didn’t have an answer…
Today we are ending Summer about the same way that we started it. We ran to the grocery store, and have spent the day bumming around the house. Agnes and Dylan have been outside playing most of the afternoon, and Thade has been busy on his PS4.
I hope tomorrow goes well. I’m not quite ready to get up early, and neither are the kiddos. It is going to be a long day for all of us.
