Real First Day of School

Off they went today to school. Looking so cute. Elysia was laden down with bags heavier than her. Graham was nervous about finding his classroom so he asked me to meet him at school. I told him I could drive him but that was no good because he wanted to see if he had a new bus driver. I went to the school to meet him but he ran right into the school. I watched as Elysia went in looking the other way pretending not to see her mother there. So I said "I can see you", the eye roll was her response...I am totally uncool. I went in to find Graham, I found his classroom and he had already found it, put his stuff in the locker and headed out. So now I had to find my way out, I did manage to run into him and he told me that he had everything under control. All is fine. Now I have one in Grade 7 and one in Grade 3. Where did the time go? I have a niece who started highschool yesterday, that freaks me out. What happened to our babies??
Josee and I are going to a champagne breakfast at her friend's house, we are celebrating school starting. This is really my first year of enjoying it. Most times, it just meant that I was late for work but this is the first time that I have an opportunity to enjoy their first day of school. With all their arguing lately, it's a blessing to have them apart for a while, I think they were sick of seeing each other so much.
