No tears were shed (by me, at least---Sugar Daddy let go of a few). I think I got it out of my system last week just thinking about him getting on the bus by himself. Today I was just excited that it was finally here. Frog looked so cute with his backpack! 
We all waited outside for the bus to show up. It arrived at 7:20am. I can't believe we were all up and ready that early. I did work on getting him to bed at a decent hour last night. It should be easier tonight since he's been up since 6:30am.
I think he had a good time. He came home in a good mood and it took him a good 2-3 hours before he started getting naughty. I didn't get any sort of message from the teacher so I'm taking that as a good sign. No news is good news, eh?
Tomorrow, Big Apple and I have a breakfast date to celebrate my birthday. It'll be weird going out with just one kid in tow. We're meeting Hollie at the IHOP (by the Walmart at 9am--anyone else care to join us?). Check out the pics of her little girl on her blog. In one of them she's wearing the hat I made for her 1st birthday. Cute as can be!
oh what a big boy! he looks so cute. snif snif he's growing up!
ReplyDeleteWhat a great picture of Frog. I've found that I tend to cry more at the new idea of my kids hitting a big milestone and often don't have time to get emotional as it happens. Enjoy your time with BA and Happy Birthday tomorrow!
ReplyDeleteI love those pictures! I'm glad he had fun. (No surprise there.)
ReplyDeleteI'm glad the first day went so well! And have a great breakfast tomorrow! I have my neighbors kids on Tuesday mornings and my VT are coming (maybe they ALL want to go huh?) Oh well, we'll have to pick another time and do breakfast. . .mmm. Have a chocolate chip pancake for me.
ReplyDeleteHooray! I can't believe he is big enough to wear a backpack and ride the bus already! How exciting for him. Congratulations to all of you. This is going to be great.
ReplyDeleteHappy Birthday to you tomorrow. I'll be thinking of you at IHOP. I love that place.

He looks so excited. How cute! Good job Froggy.
ReplyDeleteBreakfast was lots of fun. We'll have to do that again sometime.
Happy Birthday!
I wish I could have gone to breakfast.
ReplyDeleteFrog looks like such a big boy and I am glad that he had fun. This will be a good break for everyone. You will get some good time with BA. :-)
Did you get my little goodies at the front door? I came by around 7 and the cars were there but no one answered. I figured you were downstairs engrossed in American Idol (they actually did pretty well last night. . ) anyway, I was going to go around the side but I was already late for my primary meeting. Anyway, have a great day. . .
ReplyDeleteGot the goodies, Wendy! Thanks. We had walked over to our new house to do the last walk through before closing. In an hour we'll be homeowners. WOW!
