I can't believe Cam is in Kindergarten. I have never been so worried about anything as I was about this. I mostly was worried about how I would handle being without him. I knew he could handle it, he is so social and happy, but I also knew how quiet the house would be without him. I have been so angry thinking about how school will have him for more hours a day than I will. I still struggle with this. You have to hope that everything you have given them in their first 5 years is strong enough to withstand all of the other influences they are going to be around.
His first day was awesome. He was great when I dropped him off. He was so sweet and happy. He looked so handsome in his uniform. After his first day he got in the car and said "Mom, I love school!". The next two days have gone just as well. I am so proud of him. I can hardly believe he is so big and confident to go all day on his own and be so well behaved. Mackenzie and I have had a good time together. The first day was pretty hard. I pretty much stayed out of the house so I wouldn't notice how lonely it was without him. When he got home from school that day he was walking through the hallway and Mackenzie went up to him and wrapped both arms around him and just held on. We talk about him and wonder about what he is doing. We have cleaned out the fridge and 2 closets. Mackenzie is so fun to do stuff like that with. She loves to help me and she talks to me the whole time.
Every day gets easier. Knowing that he is happy helps so much. He is extremely exhausted when he gets home. We definately need to work out the kinks in our schedule. He gets home and just wants to play with the neighbors and keep going strong. He is not eating enough in his lunch, today nothing at all. I think after this week he and I both will know more about what to expect. Thanks to everyone who worried and thought about us during this huge transition.
