Life with Charlotte in preschool is #1 - much different than I imagined, and #2 - very boring. I'll start by saying that since she has started kindergarten, I have not left my house from the time she leaves to the time she gets home. I just wander from room to room going stir-crazy. I miss her! So do Claire and Gabe. Their lonesomeness manifests as extreme grouchiness and fit-throwing. Charlotte is the one they both play with, and now that they are left with only each other, they are rebelling.
I feel sad that I'm such a little part of her day. I feel like we are getting dumber as she is getting smarter. I want them to send homework so that I have exclusive time getting to know how school is for her and how she performs there. I can't wait until open house on the 11th so I can ask her exact, minute by minute, weekly schedule so that I can mentally follow along.
Now, I'm going back to watching Project Runway marathon interspersed with What Not to Wear. That should tell you just how shallow I'm thinking these days. Anything for a distraction from myself!

You're a much better mother than me. 3:00 comes much too quickly.

Oooo, I miss Project Runway! I haven't watched it since we lived in Texas! We don't get it here! I'm so jealous! I am still dreading the idea of kindergarten all together! Hopefully I can conform to the idea as it gets closer!
