They day dawned gray and heavy with the promise of rain, but that didn't damped the spirits around our house.
Today Tayler and Sean headed to their first day of middle school.
And everyone in the house got up early with them. Which I don't understand, if it were me not going to school yet, I would relish my last day of sleeping in.
Our middle school starts the 6th graders a day before anyone else with a half day of school to give them a shot at running through their schedule and using their lockers before they're swarmed by 7th and 8th graders.
More on the upcoming school year tomorrow, when the rest of them start and it's the "real" first day of school.
And also, moms go to school to.
Sadly I'm not at the University of Utah anymore. Their schedule has absolutely no flexibility in it. One of my pre-req's was held at 11:00 in the morning. And only at 11:00 in the morning. Being a working mom, flexibility is huge for me, so I've transferred to the University of Phoenix to finish my bachelor's degree online. Today is my first day, and I'm excited to keep pushing forward with this.
Since we seem to live our lives on a school year schedule, here's to a new year!
