The First Day of School!

I was a bit worried with the way the morning was starting. Luke was upset by the silliest things and was just on edge! I wonder if it was just nerves. After breakfast, things got a bit better and he calmed down.

I got him ready for school and took some pictures of he and Belle.


We picked up the carpool kids and then parked so that I could walk him up to the door. There is a playground for the kindergarten right in front of the doors, so he got a chance to play for a few minutes before the bell rang. When the bell did ring, he came right over and got his backpack from me. I gave him a hug and the tears started. I was trying to hide them from him, so when he said, "See you later", he had to say it again to get a response from me. It was really high-pitched, so I hope he didn't notice that anything was wrong. He went right in and is hopefully having a great day!

Belle and I went to the store after dropping him off. It felt so weird to be without him! I felt like I was forgetting someone! I'll get used to it. I hope I don't cry tomorrow, too!
