Another School Day

Today Elijah went off to his 2nd day of Mother's Day Out. He goes once a week to a program close to my office.
This morning was a glimpse into the future of school day mornings. It was a rough night, with EM waking up multiple times, and no one wanted to get up this morning. Normally Elijah wakes up and is ready to go, but this morning he woke up and didn't want to get out of bed! I had to go in multiple times before he was ready to get out of the crib and start his morning. Once he was up he was ready to go, but I could help think how this was a reminder of me and my mom's routine when I was in high school! :) She'd come in multiple times before I was up and ready to go! Lol!
On the way to school we talked about what he might get to do in his classroom. He was sure baseball would be on the schedule! My ball crazy kid!
He walked into school holding my hand again today. He was big eyed and a bit clingy when the teacher came to get him at the classroom door, but no tears! Even mom didn't cry!
One more day done 16 more years to go!
