In less than a week, we will begin the process of sending our kids off to school. I think they will transition well, since they have been still getting up EARLY, which means they go to bed early.
This year, we will have 2 in school full-time & one in preschool 2 mornings a week. So for a few hours a couple days a week, I will have gone from 4 kids to 1 little baby. I AM EXCITED! I know, I know...I need to cherish these times when they are little, but with them all fairly close together, it's been a lot to do the last 6 years & I am looking forward to a little "break" & to actually have some time to miss them & appreciate them a little more.
Although I will be down a few, I still have not become overzealous on my to-do list simply for the fact that baby is now rolling all over & getting upset when he gets stuck somewhere. Soon enough he will be crawling & into many things & I will have to tackle the job of baby-proofing the new house & all the smaller toys that have accumulated as the kids got older. It's just too hard to expect them to keep those things away from him & he's also learning about tantrums & frustration when something gets removed from his possession, so we are going to try to cut down on those situations.
The kids are excited about going to games & getting back to school to see their friends. It will be fun to see how this year goes living in town & we are all looking forward to it!
