It's Time For School Alreay?

A couple days after Orion's birthday school started again. I dropped him off in his new classroom with his new teacher and everything seemed fine. When I picked him up after school everything was not fine. He complained that there were three recesses. What child complains about that? For the next two weeks I had to walk him into school and wait with him until the bell rang before I could leave his side. There were plenty of tears. I completely identified with his anxieties. One day I was sick and unable to take him to school so I left that task up to Michael. Orion tried to get him to walk him in but he refused. Michael turned it into a special mission for him. With some trepidation Orion agreed to the plan. Michael dropped him off successfully and I was sooo proud of my little boy. The next morning he told me I didn't have to walk him in. I was so happy. It has been quite an adjustment for him but it slowly seems to be getting better. Who knew first grade was going to start like this?!
