Back to school

As if I don’t have a hundred things on my mind, there is one thing that is coming and we cannot stop it. School.

I was accepted into the Medical Coding program at Austin Community College at the beginning of this month. I’ve been taking prerequisite courses and courses that didn’t require you to be accepted in the program in the meantime. With all that has been going on – being accepted was a huge surprise. A great surprise! It gave me hope that there is still good coming my way. Most of all, I felt accomplished and I am that much closer to finishing school.

As for Slade; my baby will start Kindergarten THIS August (hold on while I sob). I cannot believe we are at this point in his life. Just like every mother says, where does the time go? It feel like just yesterday he was three years old. Or even two years old. He’s going to be a Kindergartner and six years old this year (hold on, I’m sobbing once more)!

A fellow Mommy/friend of mine have already arranged a breakfast date after we drop the babies off in the morning. We are calling it, “Coffee and Cries”. A bit dramatic? I think not. These are our BABIES we don’t want to grow up.

With that said - Slade and I have some huge responsibilities headed our way. I am not one bit worried, but I am scared. School for kids isn't what it used to be when I was in Kindergarten. I’m sure everyone can agree on that. But I will be a Positive Polly and hope all will be just fine.

I think it’s funny we will be in school at the same time. I have a new homework buddy, that’s what I’m most excited about. And to see him grow, learn and be independent. I am so blessed to have such a sweet, smart baby boy. Just had to throw that in there. Ha.

Here’s to homework, school clothes and never missing a day of class!
