No tears on anyone’s part, but probably only because I woke up with some bleeding (sorry…I realize that may be too much info for some) and I was way too freaked out about that to really focus on the fact that my first baby was starting kindergarten. The entire family made the trip over there this morning to see him off and we all did well. My youngest asked a few times where his brother was, but beyond that everything went smoothly. Except that I didn’t send a lunch or lunch money because I thought they weren’t doing lunch since they dismissed the kindergarteners at 12:30. Oops! He apparently got spaghetti (and ate it!) in the cafeteria, so I guess I owe someone some money. But overall I handled it pretty well…I just hope I do as well on Monday when it all starts for *real* and he’s going every day from 8-2:30. I could probably count on one hand the number of times I’ve been separated from him for 6.5 hours at a time and now we’ll be doing that EVERY DAY. Wow…mind blowing stuff.
(And the other issue cleared up on it’s own as the day progressed, so I assume everything with the newest baby is fine. This is not the first time it’s happened and so far it hasn’t caused any major issues besides causing me to go into panic attack mode.)
