Tomorrow is the first day of school for my daughter and I'm the one feeling anxious! I wish I could take her and sit with her while she discovers who her teacher will be, check out the other kids in class, where her desk is and basically just hold her hand and make her feel like it will be okay. Maybe she doesn't even think she needs any of it, it's probably my controlling nature taking over. Or, to me that was the fun part of school and maybe I would rather relive it!
The beginning of a school year has always felt more like a new year to me than New Years Day. I was more focused on cleaning and organizing today than enjoying the last day of summer vacation. I need to feel like our routine is on track and try to be organized. I think with the rest of our lives out of control, I feel the need to feel in check for where I can, when I can.
I'm always excited for a new school year, it's a fresh start for everyone, New Years is just a reboot :)
Enjoy everyone!
