First day of school, settling in
OK, first day of public school today in Broward.
A friend of mine remarked that it's a day working parents look forward to, much more than non-working parents, the thought being that we need the routine much more.
Agree/disagree?
You won't hear me bemoaning the end of summer. I've been looking forward to this day for about two weeks now. I'm ready to see my son get rolling, and have been dying to rip that Nintendo out of his hands. That, plus I like getting up in the morning, getting him off to school and having the early morning to go on my run or swim.
And, sorry, but I don't feel guilty about it.
