Well....

we made it! Greg and I got up this morning at 6:15 expecting Anna to get up soon so we could get ready for the first day of school. Any today is the day she decides to sleep in. She finally woke up at 7:00 right as Greg was getting ready to leave. After giving him kisses, we came in and got dressed for school. Said our good-byes to Sydney (tear tear, it was almost as hard leaving Sydney this morning, she didn't know what was coming.....a whole day by herself!). We got in the car and drove to Anna's new school. When we got there Anna walked to her room but as soon as she saw the kids and her room she hugged my leg and started to back out of the room. Great! I was about to lose it and now she didn't want to go in! I then walked her over to the bridge that is in her room and the toys and she went and picked one out. I knew if I stayed any longer I would start to cry and she would come back for me, so I said thanks to her teacher Angie and left. I just made it out of the front door and lost it. Sobbed the whole way to school.  The day was OK, but I'm lucky I didn't get a ticket on the way home speeding to get Anna. I was the happiest mother in the world going in to pick her up, I just couldn't wait. She was on the playground with the other kids and was playing in a car, just like last year. Her other teacher Jennifer said she had a great day. The only time she cried was when she woke up from her nap. They want all kids to stay on their cots and read books until nap time is over and Anna didn't want to stay on her cot. No bad, she'll learn. Other than that, super! Her daily report said that she ate all her breakfast, all her lunch (chicken and pastry, yum!), no peas, but all her applesauce and ate all her goldfish snack. What a great eater. I know she's well taken care of and having a lot of fun with her teachers and new friends. Tomorrow I'm going to try and not cry, we'll see how that goes.
