First Day of School

So today was Collin's first day of school.  He had a blast, I think.  I didn't even get to say goodbye to him b/c as soon as he saw the teachers he took off running and they just lifted him into class.  When I came to pick him up they were on the playground and he did NOT want to come home.  Thankfully, he didn't throw a fit (a big fear for me) but he most definitely wanted to stay and play.  Since then it's been "teachers" and "school".  I'm glad he liked it but I have to say I was a little sad that he didn't even notice that I was gone at all.  I'm sure I'll get used to it and enjoy my "me time" but I couldn't stand the thought of going home w/o him today so I went to visit my grandparents until it was time to pick him up.  

Everyone has said that the second day is harder than the first so we'll see what happens but i just really think he'll behave much the same way.  My baby is growing up!!

Wow! That's really great, Renee! I'm really glad he didn't give you a hard time and hopefully he'll always love school. It's hard when they don't notice you're gone, but it's so much worse when they hate going.
