Wahooo

I just got an email from Sarah Hodsdon at Sarahndipitous to tell me that I won a prize from the Blogabration celebrations. I won a handmade mug from Sarah Hodsdon. I think that is so cool and I cannot wait to receive it. I'll post a picture of my new mug when I receive it!! I can't wait to see it.

On another note, school went well this week. A little scary on the first day, but not bad. I have homework already, boy I am not used to homework!! Do you know how long it's been?? 22 years!!! I'll be OK, I think!!

My baby started too. She didn't have a great first day. She cried and cried when we left her, I cried and cried when we left her -- that was the hardest thing to do!! And when we went back at the end of the day to pick her up her beautiful brown eyes were puffy and red. You could tell she had been crying alot through the day. Her teacher said that everytime they did something new, or moved somewhere like the cafeteria or outside to play , that she would start to cry again. Just unsure of it all. Oh God, I cried again when I saw those sad little eyes!!!

The next day her daddy dropped her off and she was OK, didn't really cry, but didn't want daddy to leave either. When I went to pick her up at the end of the day she saw me and came running and said "Mama, I didn't cry at all today" Oh God, do you think Mama cried again??? YES!! Hopefully Monday will be an even better day for her. Our obstacle now is getting her to get on that bus. Her older brother and sister had better be nice to her and see that she is OK, plus she has a little friend that is brave enough to take the bus, so I am hoping that that little girl will give her the helping hand that she needs!!

Anyway, hope you all have a great Sunday!!
