Yup, that happened. \u00a0The kids started their first day of Transitional Kindergarten. \u00a0For those of you who are not familiar with what that is, it is basically the first year of a two year kindergarten program. \u00a0It was made for the kids who have fall birthdays and miss the new age cutoff date. \u00a0It will be very similar to what kinder was like back when we were in school. \u00a0It is also know as Freedom.<\/p>\n
We have been prepping the kids for awhile now so they knew they would be going to school all day everyday, but it was still pretty hard on them. \u00a0You could tell Jackson was trying not to cry and Ella didn’t have much to say which normally you can’t get her to shut up. \u00a0I’m not really sure what they actually did in class, but they both came home saying they had fun, so that’s all I can really hope for. \u00a0Ella said her favorite part was reading books after they did work, and Jackson said his favorite part was eating lunch. \u00a0Yup, those are my kids.<\/p>\n
So what did I do? \u00a0No much. \u00a0I pretty much just enjoyed having the house nice and quiet for the first time in almost 5 years. \u00a0There were no fights to break up, no Legos to step on, no stories to read a billion times, I didn’t have to dress Barbie Dolls or Lalaloopsy Dolls, and I didn’t have to play castle vs. dinosaur vs. mini super hero guys. \u00a0All I had to do was drink my coffee, eat my lunch and watch a movie with lots of violence and bad language. \u00a0It was awesome!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
