First Day

Well, the kids had their first day of school today.

All in all, I want to say it was pretty anti-climatic. I think we have done this once or twice.

Derric of course was the first one up, wanting some mommy-derric time, so we cuddled for about 10 minutes before Kauchana pops in and asks if it is too early to be up. Oh well. Those two get breakfast, then I send Derric down to get dressed. Xavier shows up then to get breakfast himself. I work on Kauchana's hair while we work on getting Coda up. Finish Chana's hair then smooth out Derric's bed head. Coda wanted his braided so I fixed his too. Got a couple pictures of the kids, then off to school, Coda back to the High School, Chana dashed off to the Middle School, Xavier walked with Derric and I, he still lets me give him a good-bye kiss lol. Got Derric to school and went to check to see if his new Autism teacher was in. Stopped by to say hi, then off to his line for his class.










That was about it. I was expecting more of a fight from Derric, but I think taking Trooper Dog with today helped.

Walked back over to get Derric, found he did have a small melt down near the end of the day, but kinda guess he would. It will be tough on him, should be about a week or so before his classes all get back aligned and his schedule finalized. His teacher is fine with him bringing either Trooper Dog or Fluffy to help keep him calm, which I am grateful for.

Xavier got home not long after, I got his class schedule and the lovely forms to fill out for him. He sat down and started right on homework! (Can I hope this will last?!) Kauchana followed, but ran back out the door to give something to a friend that is now up at the high school. She didn't leave without first dropping off her forms and class schedule. Coda walked in right as she walked out, and I got his forms and class list.

So you probably would like to know what the kids have for classes?
