So Friday Feb 6th was Isaiah's first day at school. I have been homeschooling him since we were in Texas and we didn't know for sure when we were moving. I didn't want to start him there to move him so I decided to home school until we got settled here. Now that we are settled, we checked out the school that he would go to. It is a good school so we decided he was ready, well really that I was ready. I can't believe how hard it is to send them to kindergarten!!! Jonathan, Elijah and I took him to school. It was so hard to say goodbye. Elijah was not happy about it at all. The night before we were on our way home and Isaiah was telling Elijah, "Tomorrow I am going to school!" and Elijah said, "But I'm going to miss you!!" It was so sweet. Then Isaiah tried to make him feel better and told him how he would be able to play with me and that he could play with his toys while he was gone. It was so nice of him to try to make his little brother feel better!!!
We met Isaiah's teacher, her name is Mrs. Benjamin. She was very nice and so were the other kids in his class. I could tell that as the time for us to leave was getting closer that he was getting upset and so was I. I kept it together and told him goodbye and that I loved him and would be there to pick him up. As we walked out the door I turned to Jonathan and said, "I am really having a hard time with this." And of course started to cry. Jonathan made me feel better and as we were walking out to the car Elijah was holding my hand and said, "Why are we outside?" I told him we were going home. Then he said, "You forgot Isaiah" It was so cute. I told him that we would come and get him later that he had to stay at school. We had a good day and so did Isaiah. He really likes school and I am so happy about that!!! I hope this leaving him gets easier!!!!
