We survived the first day of school...again. This one was way different though--even our Baby Grady started his very first day. It just doesn't seem that long ago that we ushered Madison into her first day at Woodland Springs Elementary in Keller. I had a lonely three year old Tanner and a baby Grady on my hands then, and I didn't see the end to diapers or sippy cups in my near future. Now it's all big boy and girl cups and ipods. Things change so fast.
I thought I had it together until our staff meeting this morning. Somehow seeing all the things ready for school officially to start set me off, and I boo hoo-ed like no other. In fact, if I had the chance, I would have literally sobbed. I needed a dcoke break at 8 this morning, but instead I had a classroom of my own kids to get ready for fifth grade. His teacher, Mrs. Joseph, was super sweet, saying she would take good care of him, and I was able to see him a little throughout the day. But still, he's only going to get bigger from here. :( The other two survived no problem-even Madison with her momma for a homeroom teacher. We have a routine to settle into--there tends to be a lot of crazy that comes with the Scrogginseseses, but it is nice to know we are all in this together.
