Mommy Giddy with Kid-Free Time

Our babies are both in school this year!  Sophie started kindergarten and Rhys entered preschool (2 days/week).  We've been preparing them for a month now but, Sophie surprised us the night before kindergarten with sobs.  When asked what the worse thing that could happen, she replied, "Write words."  Not a favorite pass time.  Then she said how much she'd miss her daddy (he comes home for lunch).  After lots of cuddles and a few more wails she was fast asleep and was her regular go-getter self in the morning.

The real Sophie
She had a great first day.  Loved the playground and touring the school.
 
Rhys started school the next day.  We are keeping our fingers crossed that his new independent toileting skills stick.  He has at least one good friend in his class and one acquaintance.  We are much more nervous for Rhys than Sophie because of his speech delay. 
He chose his Superman shirt for his first day.  Rhys enjoyed music class and the playground and was very pleased with the yellow construction school bus he made.
 
Keri was giddy with her new found child-free time.  She crossed off a myriad of items off her list, threw out old toys without any objections, and even kicked back a bit.  Good time to take advantage of it because soon she will be doing contract work for Allen ISD during the kids' school time.
