Today was Alex's first day of school! And for a child who doesn't roll so well with change, we had a lot to deal with this morning. A new van driver, a different van with no cd player so he can listen to his favorite music on the way to school (Hannah Montanna, Camp Rock, Bon Jovi, etc) and a last minute phone call to let us know he will be in a new classroom with a new teacher. So, there were a lot of tears, telling me he was soooo nervous, please go on the van with me mommy, please come to school with me, what if my new teacher is strict, on and on. After about a half hour I was able to convince him to get on the van and then slowly pry his arms off me to leave for school. Then I went inside and cried. It was tough for both of us. But it turns out he had a great day and I took him to Blockbuster to reward him with a movie rental!
