Back To School | Bits of Sunshine August-September 2022
This has been a tough one for me to write so I definitely put it off. Another school year rolled around and I found myself preparing for both my babies to be in school. This is a year full of huge adjustments. Axel started Kindergarten and this is the first year he will not be home with me. It is (and has been) very bittersweet. I'm so excited to see him blossom and absolutely have loved hearing about his days and what he learns. He is already singing learning songs all the time. We had a very rocky start with him and another kid picking on him. As you probably know, neither one of us took it well. I have to say the past two weeks have been more easy sailing once we crossed those bridges of finding solutions to keep him feeling safe and happy in the school environment.
Roman, thankfully, has had an easy transition this year. In the past, this wasn't the case. His elementary school has made each year better and better. I'll always be grateful for that. He fits right in and continues to shine and show his personality. He has been eager and excited for school days. If you told me a few years ago this would happen I wouldn't believe you. I just hope the same happens for little Axe.
This is the first year to have an empty house and it's very surreal. Some days it feels so good to have quiet time or really get things accomplished. On other days the silence is unbearable and I feel myself slipping away. It's been a fine line I've been walking on. I'm hanging in there.
I'm excited to see where the year takes all of us. It's a new learning curve with every year which can go either way. I'm not going to lie... I'm trying to enjoy where we are right now. The fall season coming, holidays with the kiddos, and more. But I would be lying if I said I wasn't ready for summer break already just to have them home. xx
