I have both my girlies in school now. Aftan is in "kindergarten" and Reagan in preschool. Aftan was very excited to go back to school and see her teacher. She really missed her this summer. Reagan is liking school, but she is not yet adjusted to having to be away from me all day. She cries for me at drop-off in the morning, but I peek in the window when I am outside (yes, I am a preschool stalker) and she is already done crying every time I look in. She is excited when I come to pick her up and announces to her entire class that "My mommy is here!!!!". She tells me all about her day and all the things she did. Aftan is hit or miss. Some days she "can't remember" what she did and some days, like the day she got to be the teacher's assistant, she will explain in great detail. I guess it's the age ;)
I have gone back to work outside the home. My original plan was to work 9-2 M-F, but right now it is not working out quite that way. I am working 9-2 some days, but I am working a couple nights after the girls go to bed and maybe will start working some weekends if the weekday hours don't pan out. I kind of like it b/c a couple days a week, I have some time at home to myself. I enjoy that down time and the ability to get things straightened up w/out someone asking for things constantly.
I do miss my girls, though.
Here is a pic from their first day of school:
