So Fresh and So Clean

What a weekend! We were on organization patrol... Jack's closet, the playroom closet, our closet, the office closet... all ORGANIZED!!! Amazing. What a good feeling. Brandon and I also snuck in a trip to an outlet mall to get me all set up with new clothes for a new school year! Oh the fun of shopping for yourself without a 19 month old in tow!! It was fabulous.

Jack had another great day at school on Friday. He happily went inside and into his classroom on his own, but then turned to me and started crying. I gave him a kiss and a hug and said goodbye. When I picked him up at 4:15, he was sitting on the little step that leads to where the kids eat lunch, with yellow blankie over his head. I stood there and watched for a minute. He then took off yellow blankie and rolled around on the floor with the other kids, laughing. When I said "Hi, Jack!" he smiled and then RAN AWAY FROM ME! He ran straight to the toys and only after I crouched down and asked for a hug did he head my way! He then showed me where he sits to eat lunch, and danced to the ABC song playing on the stereo. What a relief to really know that he's enjoying his new school. My heart feels so good about this one. According to Miss Nikki, he had a great day. They did a cook-out for lunch and Jack loved him some hot dogs! You know how he is about hot dogs!! He also took a good nap, and just had a great day.

I'm going to have to take a video of him giving Miss Nikki a hug goodbye and then blowing kisses and waving to all of his friends. It'll melt your heart for sure!

Tomorrow is the first day of my new life... back to school! I have a new faculty meeting tomorrow, then 3 days of regular meetings. School starts a week from Tuesday. I can't wait!

I'm going to post this and then add pictures to a new post. It's easier that way!

Can't wait to see the video. I found my blankie in my recent move and slept with it for a few days. Hee hee.
