Finally Something Thats Worth Writing About.

               I haven't really been updating my blog. I guess I've just been in a blogging funk.... Today I finally have a reason to blog.

The past two weeks, I have been going to bed around 12 just to wake up around 5:45 to get my little man up & used to getting up for school. Well all my hard, **Boring** work paid off. Today John started school. His very first day ever. He was a stay at home kid. No day cares, no pre-school. (He got tested to see if it was needed, I got told he'd be bored....Not worth it.)

             He did wonderfully.  He only got spoken to about not staying in his seat once he was done with his work. His teacher told me that he was very well mannered, very outgoing. She also said that he did what he was told when he was told, but just needed that helpful reminder about staying in his seat. I'm so very proud of him. I hope he keeps it up. (Trans- HE BETTER KEEP IT UP.!!!)

Sighs. All those days this week & last worrying for nothing.... He did well. No tears, no whining. Just wonderful... He really enjoyed his day. I don't think Ive ever seen him so excited for anything. This morning we stayed just long enough to watch him with his teacher put his things away. It broke my heart because when we walked away he had this look of OMG their leaving me. But he wiped his eyes & went on his way...

I think John's going to do great this year, he better. He needs to not only because mommy & daddy want him to, but because He wants too. I believe in helping your child through out their school years. Setting up good habits, like doing their home work at the kitchen table with no t.v. or Ipod's going. Making sure that you don't just give them the answer, but really truly help them understand what they are doing.

I also believe in setting those habits early, for when they get to Middle School or High School they are already set..... Kindergarten to me is the year that sets how the rest of his school will go. So we both need good habits.

Like waking up on time for school. Something Im still getting use too....
