First Day of Third Grade!

Massive information round these elements—your niece aka my little Coywolf began third grade. Her first day was on Thursday, and I’m pleased to report that she got here residence all smiles and enthusiastic about class and her new trainer. She’s already made a brand new buddy and had an “epic playdate” that concerned not one, not two, not three, however 4 cats. FOUR CATS! Facet observe, there’s no method that Tabs would’ve let that fly. LOL. I miss that idiot cat on daily basis.

Fingers and toes crossed that this will probably be a superb 12 months for her. I’m hoping for plenty of constructive interactions with classmates and for much less woman drama.

Yup, there’s cliques and alliances already, sigh. Loopy to suppose that that is taking place within the third grade, however maybe it’s regular and I had no concept?

I’m curious to know what it was like for you, or on your children when you’ve got them, in elementary college.

In my class I keep in mind there have been the women who have been thought-about “the gorgeous women,” however I used to be very unaware of social standings and wasn’t too focused on no matter was occurring. I suppose I used to be too busy making an attempt to fade into the background and keep below the radar. Maybe that cluelessness was one of many unknown perks of being severely under-parented and left to my very own gadgets, ha ha ha!

Oh! Once I left Connor in her classroom, I used to be very stunned to not be hit by that wave of emotion that normally drops after I say goodbye to her and stroll away. This time, I felt fairly good, like I knew she was going to be OK and that she’d be regular sufficient to deal with no matter would come her method

Maybe I’m studying, slowly however absolutely, the inevitable process of letting her go into the world. Possibly we’re each rising up.

Now that she’s again at school and the chaos of summer time camp scheduling is in my rear view mirror, I’m hoping to get again on a gradual writing schedule once more. I don’t know when this occurred, however I desperately crave consistency, particularly in terms of on a regular basis scheduling. The uncertainty impacts every little thing else, together with writing. I’m hoping subsequent month will probably be simpler to take a seat down on the keyboard to babble on about lord is aware of what, LOL! It’s simply enjoyable to have the time to jot down, you already know?

Completely satisfied Saturday to you!

Your pleasant neighborhood magnificence addict,
