Back to School

It's finally happened!!  Our long-awaited, hoped for as well as dreaded day, has come!  My school kiddos are all in school officially as of today!!  Treva, Katreese, and Eden started back to school in Seiad today!  It's always interesting when this day happens (kind of like the last day of school before summer) because there are so many emotions for all of us.  

*The kids are happy to see their friends and teachers again!
*Mom and the kids are thinking it is time for scheduled days again..
*..all the while feeling sad that our sweet summertime is OVER!!!
*Eden has been very excited about school (it makes her hyper when she talks about it)
*Eden has also been feeling her own worries about school...
*Anything that is different will hold worries and concerns for her more than average!
*Mom is thinking a little less chaos would sound nice, but....
*I AM going to miss my school kids...
*and it just seems like once they start school I don't get much time with them!!
*All the while, I think Bella and Bereket will enjoy more Mommy time!!
*Bereket is feeling confused about the change... and probably a little worried too!
*Bella is stoic and says that she isn't missing Eden and the girls but...
*her mother knows even if this is the truth today, it won't be true soon!!
*Treva is feeling happy to be one of the oldest in the school, 
*knowing next year holds big changes for her when she goes to high school!
*This year, though, she will be in her element because she loves helping younger kids!
*Katreese is concerned that her school work will be harder this year...
*because she struggles more than Cyrus and Treva in school!
*Katreese is still happy, though, to see her friends as well!

Eden's first day of school in America!
