Back to school!


The kids went back to school Monday. Alissa started pre-school. She goes from 8-noon Mon-Fri. The first day she did ok when we left her. The last 2 days she has told me as soon as she akes up that she's not going to school because it's scary. Of course once the teacher prys her off me and they go outside to play she's good. Today she even got a gummy bear for being a good listener. She also told me that she got to play with her "hot spikey haired boyfriend" the second time they went outside today. She has definantly been listening to Chey too much. We also learned that Alissa can read minds. She said her teacher said that her first day of school outfit wasn't cute. I said no they didn't. Her reply? "Yes they did, in there head!" Ummm, ok!


As for the other kids, Chey is in 5th. Her last year in elementry school! :( She has a male teacher for the first time in her life. He's funny though so she likes him. Dyl is in 3rd and Cass 2nd. They both like there teacher.


As for me, I'm liking the 4 hours a day of peace and quiet. I never get that so it's been a shock to my system. I don't have to listen to Dora and Deigo in the mornings now. I have actually even considered turning on The Today Show or something like other adults do. I'm not a big morning show person though so I have opted for reruns of Cold Case and dvr Days of Our Life. I haven't had to pause a show in 3 days though. It's crazy!!! And for next week

I'm actually gonna clean the house and not have a child behind me messing it up! Ho cool is that?!

It's hard to believe but Monday through Friday for 2 weeks now I have had a clean house. :) Of course, we have to start all over again come Monday but 5 out of 7's not too bad!

It's so good to hear from you, Jen! How have you been?
