School

The kids started school last week, and it was a little rocky. Both were crying, and Alex in particular was cause for concern after his experience with the Creche (He would cry nonstop for hours until we had to come get him). Today was the first day of his first full week in school and we had been talking it up all weekend. I had also ordered new backpacks for both of them, to be given to them this morning. I dropped them off and it actually didn't go too badly. No tears at all until Alex realized that school was not a one week thing and that he would be going back. Then there were a few tears, but much better than last week. Phew!
