Back to schoooool!!

The relief I felt going to bed last night, knowing the first time in basically 12yrs, I wont have 1-2 children literally on top of me while I work all day long, was.off.the.charts. The guilt that crept in as I kissed the dragons and walked out of their room for the last first day at OLV…that was suffocating. I full on felt terrible that I felt so GOOD about them all in another place than me for 7.5hrs a day. With a friend at the exit asking me if I was crying yet, turned on the real tears of sadness in realization time is such a thief. But I feel like I’ve worked hard for this day. Thousands of hours of nursing/soothing/rocking with one hand while on my Mac with the other. Yeah, I had sitters off and on, but usually I was shooting while they were gone or the sitter was at the house so the crazy was still in my face. But now, EVERY DAY will be quiet around here? I.am.here.for.it. One day I’ll miss the noise for sure, but not this yr. 🤣

Sam is in the same grade as the twins. A full head taller!😆

I wish their teacher a lot of luck. Like all the luck. I worked the cafeteria and their girl classmates said, “they talk A LOT!” Soooo I’m sure they’ll be writing the rules by week two. 😖

I brought some wigs so all of us can really keep our big kids in check. Don’t tell me not to embarrass you because I’m going to that much worse. Just the facts. 😬

We’re back in masks just waiting for America to get her shit together! Here’s to a healthy year and no quarantine! Heart, Melanie
