New (old) School

There are so many reasons we decided to make the kids switch schools in the middle of the year. It was a very hard decision filled with some sleepless nights, tummy aches (mine) and a few tears (all of us). But we had to do what was best for everyone and being with me at my school wasn't it anymore. It was especially hard for me because I didn't get to take them, I didn't know who their teachers were. I still haven't met them face to face. :( But Aaron handled it all! Go dad!!

The girls were put into a class with a few cheerleader friends and a few other familiar faces. They come to and from school with a sweet neighbor and everyone has settled into the new routine. I leave school now as soon as the bell rings. I can let the girls sleep in a bit longer each morning and they don't have to sit in my classroom with me after school anymore.

Saige comes home every day telling me how much she enjoys school. Reese was a little quieter about it all at first but now seems to like it as well.

The picture is from their first day. All in all it was the right decision and it feels like a weight has been lifted from my shoulders.
