Today was the first day of school for our two older children, and the "first" attendance at a new school for our daughter. Today I appeared for my first ever Jury Selection, which caused the next first: our nearly nineteen month old (how did that happen so quickly), was without me for her very first full day.
So, was it a good day of firsts?
Our son's first day back to school went smoothly. Our daughter (pretty much) enjoyed her first day at her new school. She said it was a little boring. I tried to explain, that she is in 5th grade, it can no longer be about "her having fun" (should school really EVER be about that?), rather, that the older she gets, the more focused she and the teacher need to be on academics. I was chosen for Jury Duty. Is that good? Well, I will be able to tell you better tomorrow night, after having served. And last, but by no means least, our little princess and her Daddy had an awesome "first whole day together", just the two of them.
Yes, it was a good day!
Tomorrow will be nearly a repeat of today, except they won't be firsts anymore, they will be "seconds"
I had no doubt about your littlest one & her Daddy. Psshaw ~ they probably thought you'd never leave the house.
ReplyDeleteI hope you find jury duty to at least be interesting. I think it's good to be open to new things, always. I'm glad your older two are finding school tolerable, at least their first day!
Yes, Jo-Ann, Princess has the best Daddy (and truly, he IS more fun than me). And now, I just may be convinced to leave more often!
ReplyDeleteJury was interesting. I do enjoy trying and doing new things. Big girl said today was more fun, or at least not as boring :)
