Well I have already become "that Mom" - you know the on that contacts the school on day 3. Long story short- CJ has been sobbing at dropoff- picture Pouring rain standing on a playground and a little guy ( in basically a suit) waiting to line up to enter school sobbing "I want to go home". I myself don't even put mascara on in the morning. He then is not sobbing when I pick him up but he looks wiped out and sad. I ask him about his day and he does the whole drama that at "this school he has to ask for hugs they don't just hug you like at his other school". So I talk to Chris who thinks I am making a mountain out of a molehill. I then go to the headmistress to ask if he can go part time instead of 5 full days a week- (he can't)- they assure me by week 2 he will be loving it. We shall see- I figure if I am already "that mom" - I am going to do some random surveillance.
On another note with this school day wiping him out- we are going to drop out of some activities. I had him signed up for soccer, swim lesson, and religion class. I ask him the other day which activity do you want to give up. Direct quote " Mom- would god be mad at me if I didn't go to church school" 4 1/2 is too young for catholic guilt-so we are going to have to make a call on one of these activities.
Casey on the other hand (still hates the uniform- dad's job on MWF)- but basically could care less that I am leaving her at school and is now letting me know my hair isn't pretty like Cinderella. This little lady needs to learn whose the Queen of the house.
