Summer School 2018

The summer session of our Mothers Day Out program kicked off yesterday. It will go for six weeks before we have another month long break and the fall session will start. The boys were super excited to go back to school. Campbell has been begging to go back since it ended a month ago. And I was excited for our routine to start back up.

However, both boys were uncharacteristically sad at drop off. First time ever. I was nervous for Bennett because he had a new classroom with new teachers. So I honestly wasn't surprised that he cried. But Campbell. What in the world? He clung to my shirt and his little chin quivered. He is in the same classroom with the same friends. However, his favorite teacher isn't there for the summer session. I knew he'd be bummed about it but I didn't realize he would be that upset. I had a knot in my stomach as I was walking to my car. I couldn't believe both of my boys acted like that!! I don't think they'll do that when they go back later this week. I was told that they both had a wonderful day, of course. I'm glad the  boys have the opportunity to do this in the summer. It beats staying home all day, bored, or running errands with me! I'm looking forward to seeing how drop off goes later this week. I'm crossing my fingers that they leave me in the dust like they always have. No more of this crying business. My heart doesn't like that!!
