Back to School

With great trepidation we have put summer behind us and are now back-to-school. After long summer days at camp trading Pokemon cards and whatever it was he did to get so muddy, camp ended last Friday with a genuine camp-fire and s'mores. Wuggie and his friends agreed it was the best day of camp ever. Fortunately this weekend we had cousins in from out of town to distract us and to play with. Then Tuesday we went to visit the new "big kids" building Wuggie is now attending. Over the summer parent volunteers had installed a huge fancy (and very fun) new playground, which seemed to mitigate Wuggie's trepidation somewhat. We we toured the whole building (upstairs and down- it's the first time he's gone to a school with more than one floor!) met his teacher and saw that some familiar faces (Mom was impressed with the small class size and all the cool looking djembes in the music room)and we both felt a little better about things. I just dropped Wuggie off for the last day of his first week. He tried to explain that the situation has unexpected upside. Something about being at the big-kid school...
