Asher was so excited to start First Grade today.I guess he hasn't yet reached the age where school is lame and you live for summer break. I think keeping him home with me for those last three weeks of vacation made him actually want to go back to school. Never underestimate the motivational power of a nagging mother. Based on this experiment I don't think I'll have any trouble getting him to leave the nest permanently.
Amelia and I came back to our empty little house and just stared at each other. It was lonely and far too quiet. However, don't for one second think that I wasn't trying to figure out when there will be total silence at home all day!
