School Starts Tomorrow

Oh my goodness...I knew it was coming, I thought I was prepared, but I am having a really hard time knowing that tomorrow, SCHOOL STARTS!   Leah will be a big 5th grader and Logan will be going to school for the very first time, as a Kindergartener!  REALLY???!!!  How's this happen?!

I have been washing clothes for them to wear tomorrow, and only, "almost," had a slight breakdown at the sight of Logan's little shirts and shorts.  I have also been trying to prepare him for what to do and not do at school.  I told him to make sure he used good manners.  As he looked at me, expressionless, I asked him if he knew what good manners were...he replied, "Don't say people are weird and don't spit on people."  Yep.  I told him that was right but to also make sure to say please, thank you, and no thank you.  I also had to tell him that he could not talk about his "privates" at school since this is one of his favorite things to laugh about.  Another thing I had to tell him was that if he drew any pictures of the family, that he could NOT put boobs on us.  Yes, these are things that I have to tell my child because I know how his little brain works!

Please say a prayer for us tonight...tomorrow is going to be tougher than I had thought and I just want to cry when I think about him starting school.  And I want to cry thinking about this being Leah's last year of grade school.  My babies are growing up, whether I'm ready for it, or not!
