It was 6:15 and Austin got up fairly easily. He was not or will not ever be ready to say goodbye to summer vacation. He was reminding himself about the good things about school last night. The comic books in the library, lunch, and seeing friends. The best thing is that the bus is 30 minutes later this year. He can get up when the bus used to be at our house. Now the bus comes at 6:45. He was mad that four of his friends got into another class. But I told him that it was just an opportunity to make new friends and still see the old ones.
Next, at 7:00 we try to get Hampton up. He says to come back at 7:30. He can have 30 minutes of TV time or sleep longer. So he finally got up at 7:30 and got ready for the bus at 8:05. He was excited that he had friends in his class. Of course, after five years at that school he knows almost every boy there. He also gets to change classes this year. He will have two or maybe three teachers.
As for me, I had excercised, showered, vacuumed, did paperwork, and cooked lunch - all by 12:00. I feel like it should be nighttime by now, this afternoon. Both boys had a great first day. Austin has friends in all his classes, not much from Hampton yet. Since it was a half day, they took off playing immediately.
Maybe we can make the 9:00 bedtime tonight.
