Soccer and School

Britton had a practice game last night. We still don't have a schedule for his games but a couple of the teams wanted to get together to practice. So we got to watch our first soccer game of the season even though it didn't count. Probably a good thing because our team lost. But at least some goals were made. Britton had two of the goals. I can't wait for the season to officially start!







SCHOOL: Britton has been doing really well at school. I have not heard him complain at all. Shayna on the other hand is struggling. This is the first time she has had to go to school all day. She is so exhausted by bed time. Last night she had a little melt down.

She doesn't like school lunch. Everyday she has asked me to pack her a home lunch. I told her to try to get through the first week and she will get the hang of it. If she still wants a home lunch after that we can pack her one every once in a while. I guess during lunch time she started to cry. She was just having a rough day and wanted to be at home. Her teacher gave her a little hug and told her it would get better. It makes me so sad, I wish I could just keep her home. I know how she feels. I was always the same way.

It didn't help that her new shoes gave her blisters. Yesterday was also P.E. day. With her blister she wasn't able to participate so the teacher let her be the helper. Ahhhh! I feel so bad.

Last night during her shower she just started crying and had a bit of a tantrum. I know she is tired and she has been stressed and the fact that the water stung her blister sure didn't help. I know she just needs us to be patient with her.

I can't wait for this week to be over. I know next week will be much better after she has the weekend to rejuvenate. I know the second week of school was always better for me.
