With the start of school comes a change in routine. Zoe has a notebook that includes all the things she needs to keep at home and things that need to come right back each day. It's a great system that allows the teacher and I to communicate. Because I have type-A organizational issues, I hug this book at least once a day.
I've got to be honest, I'm still getting used to this every.single.day routine. I love it, but sometimes it's 8:45 at night and I'm just looking in the notebook for the first time, saying a quick prayer of, "please don't let there be homework or letter practicing because we're in full-on, total nuclear meltdown and if I make her practice the letter 's' for any length of time, one of us will not see morning."
Zoe is also developing some new routines as well. This is the morning conversation every.single.day:
Zoe: Is today a school day?
Yes it is!
[throws her head back in disgust] DOGGONIT!
I'm really looking forward to 1st grade and going all.day.long.every.single.day!
