Today was the first day of school. I think I was more excited than the kids. Not really excited about taking Kainon to football practice at 5:30am, but I was eager to get them up. They had their clothes laid out, their backpacks ready. They combed their hair and ate breakfast.
I realize this is a phase. This will not last. It is a mirage. I give it a month, maybe less.
Soon they will evolve back to the children I know. Kainon will wear the same shirt every other day even though he has a closet FULL of clothing options. Miah will have bed head and give me the evil glare when I head towards her with my brush. Trinity will be the Linda Blair child of "I DON'T WANT TO GET UP. DO NOT STEAL MY BLANKET OR I WILL KILLLL YOU MOTHER!" Zeph will try to wear black shirt/black shorts or red shirt/red shorts combo where he looks like he is dressed as a crayon for Halloween.
For today, I will just take the pictures and wave at the bus.
