Countdown Day 12, Last day angst, first day jitters?

Well, the days have come where Brandon has to go through what I feel are adult-like life experiences. It was an interesting feeling for me, so I cant imagine how strange it was for him. The morning felt like a usual day of dropping both kids off, but all day I couldn’t believe that his time at MA was over. I kept thinking how difficult it would be when time came for picking him up. I had to leave work early to come home and get his new school supplies and some paperwork to drop off at his new elementary school. The Kindergarten classroom list was available this afternoon, along with a meet and greet of his new teacher. So Brandon would have to say goodbye to his friends and teachers at one school, and start right over within 30min at his new school. I decided that I would give the teachers a small thank you gift, and I thought that nothing says it better than some Sprinkles cupcakes. What I didn’t know was that at some point they rolled out some stickers that identified a particular occasion for the cupcakes. I thought that was pretty cool.

So off to his school I went. I showed up at what probably was a fairly awkward time but I had no choice. Everyone was sitting down at circle time quietly and I think it took a minute for the teachers to realize that I was here to pick B up for the last time. It wasn’t too bad at first until all action stopped after I had finished picking up most of his stuff. One of the teachers had B standing up and mentioned to the rest of his class that it was his last day. He stood there, not quite sure how to react, but kept his sheepish grin on his face. I know he doesn’t like the attention. That teacher gave him a hug and left him over there to keep chatting with the rest of the students, while she came over to say bye to me. I spotted her tears in her eyes, and each of the other two teachers went to say bye to B themselves. This was a pretty emotional moment, as even I had some trouble trying to stay composed. It has been a very productive year for B, and I told the teachers that he definitely made huge strides. I definitely was very thankful for their dedication and realized how much he had impacted them as well. I mentioned to them that they could fight over the cupcake flavors to make the mood a bit lighter. The last thing that they did before B left the classroom was to have his classmates say goodbye. In unison, they all gave their waves and goodbyes. It was touching and I know B was moved by it. As we were leaving, I kept trying to check to see how he was feeling and it seemed that he was taking it really well. I geared him up for what we had to do next, and he said he was excited.

We still had a little time to kill, so I told B, that today I thought he deserved a treat for completing preschool. We only go to McD’s on road trips, but this time it was convenient enough to stop there and I gave him 1/3rd of a vanilla cone.

So we got to his new school, and there was quite a bit going on. Construction was still being done in the front to create a new dropoff and pickup lot. Many parents were parking or walking their kids to the area where the class listings were posted. He wasn’t so enthused about why we were there, but I kept trying to explain where we were going, what it might be like tomorrow, and how this was exciting. We got to the listing, found his classroom and met his teacher. It seems like it will be a nice experience. He also met some of the other students that were also in the same room. One of the parents pointed out B’s t-shirt (Star War’s lego shirt which I let him wear on his last day at MA) to her son. She said that they would get along because they both love Star Wars. I hope that he has already met a new friend, but B was pretty shy today and didnt say much. Tomorrow, he gets to play in the playground before the teachers come and get them to line up for class. Parents are allowed to stay around for 5min after line up to see them to the classroom. This first few days will only be around 3 hrs of class. The rest will be at the onsite daycare, so I hope things go well for him.

Just as we were walking back to our car, B asked, “how long am I going to be here?” I had to give him the reality check, “if we don’t move, you’ll be here for 6 years.” I didn’t realize until just now that it will be more like 7 years. At the time, I tried to play it down a bit and say that each year goes by really fast and everything he learns each year is exciting and new. Judging by the year he already has, time definitely flew right by.

Afterwards, we picked up P and headed home.

The rest of the nite will be spent making sure both of them are ready for tomorrow.
