School started this week for my little peeps. I don't know if anyone else has the same experience, but I can predict with ABSOLUTE certainty the pattern for the first week.
Day One - 6:30AM
Children are wide awake, dressed, backpacks loaded and fixing their own breakfasts
Day Two- 6:30 AM
Children awaken with a few gentle nudges, get dressed(Dad has to do their ties because it is Chapel...they gag, roll their eyes and howl at the moon in general)then argue the merits of trail mix or pudding for their backpak snacks and Dad is fixing breakfast
Day Three 6:30 AM (which was this am)
Children are still asleep. Dad is downstairs fixing breakfast. One, two, three calls for breakfast. Sleepy eyed kidlets stumble from bed. Pull on uniforms (yay for lack of freedom of expression!) Mom packs snacks, pushes them out door.
Tomorrow is Friday, early dismissal. It's spirit day which means "wear a school tee and shorts and party on!"
I'm thinking tomorrow will be easier...yes?
