And here we go....

another school year. The morning ran pretty smoothly. Especially considering the fact that I had not taken the last week to get the kids to bed early. I meant to, but I just didn't. Nachito had the hardest time going to sleep last night, maybe 4th grade jitters, or maybe he was just to used to going to bed late. Nonetheless, he woke up fairly easy and was excited for the new year. Buddy and I drove him to school, and I walked him into his class. He was a little more quiet than usual, but I'm sure that by the time I got back to the car, he was his good old self. We are hoping for a quieter year from him. He does tend to be the talker in class. We shall see.

This week, my goal is to look into some sports for him to play. His asthma has been under good control (knock on wood). He has been hospital free for almost two years (knock on wood again). And that is a good thing. For a while there, he was in and out of the hospital. Thanks to his pulmonologist and his allergist, he's been great. He's really looking forward to playing sports again, what can I say, I'm a nervous mom.

On his way to class

After dropping Nachito off, we headed back home to pick up Kai. She starts school a whole hour after Nachito. I hate it, I just hate it. It just doesn't make any sense to me. Ok, enough of that. Kai was ready to go, she had her bag packed and was ready for her first day of 7th grade. She made me take pictures at home, because there was no way that she was letting me walk her into school and take pictures. She left her dance bag ready to go, as she starts dance again today. Her dance schedule is as full as always. She is excited for a new dance year. Christmas Show, new solo, competitions, etc. etc. She is also planning on going out for cheer at school this year, so that should be exciting.
