1st Day of School.

It happened. They left me. 
4th, 2nd and Kindergarten.
When Henry saw Gus getting ready for school he said
"Bacpaa? DUS????!! NOOOOOO!!!"
He was pretty sad. 
Until he got home and got to jump on the trampoline without anyone making him fall!
Pretty happy camper now.
The walk to school and dropping off my first timer. 



 Gus got the same teacher Wyatt and Kailyn had in Kindergarten.
I was worried about it because we love her and she's great but Gus is very different then my older two and was nervous about it and voiced this to her before the end of the school last year. She hand picked him for her class. She's so sweet.
Gus though informed that "I'm a little bit scared of my teacher because she smiles all the time......and its a big smile....and I'm afraid she might.....eat me."
For those worried... she didn't. 




So after I cried and took Henry to the park to eat his breakfast I had packed. We were playing on the playground and Henry went down one slide and wanted me to go down the other. When I got down to the bottom of my slide there was a hornet. So I stomped it....and then 15 or so swarmed me!!! I got stung only 5 times but was soooo soo thankful HENRY didn't go down that slide!! It would have been the worst! So there was a huge hornets nest inside the slide and they were coming out of the crack. So I grabbed henry strapped him in the stroller an we ran home grabbed my purse ran to the local Ace bought a bunch of spray and ran back (got my run in for the day). Sprayed the crap out of the slide as they all came falling out I squished them. 20! 20 Hornets!! So thankful it wasn't a child that got stung! So then I read that its all poisonous to people and pets so had to run home again and grab gallon of water and some clorox to disinfect. Such a good distraction from missing my kids and worrying about their day at school. Sadly though after that I went back to worrying. Luckily I have Henry! We played for a couple hours then he took a long nap...too long! I worked around the house furiously waiting for him to wake up! I painted doors, repainted fire place, did laundry, fixed broken things, did dishes, etc. Just kept moving. Then 1:50 came! And I got to get my Gus!!! 
We went to his best friends house (they live right behind the school) and played until it was time to pick up the older kids. I wanted to go home and talk about his day but I don't trump a best friend asking him to stay and play. Once we did get home he got teary and told me about his day. It wasn't very good he decided and he hates school and never wants to go back. Broke my heart. So we had a special dinner at Chickfila and they had face painting and balloons and that really made his evening. 
So happy that the older kids had GREAT DAYS!!! They love their teachers and each have a couple friends in class. So thankful.
