Time flys by! My son's first day of pre-k

Backstory: My son is 4 years old and will be turning 5 this year. He wasn't able to start pre-k last fall because he was really lazy on the potty training. I wasn't sure if he was going to be ready & I didn't enroll him on time.

Fast forward to today...

10:50am: I had to rush out of school when my class ended. Rushing to go meet my partner & son at his school.

I was nervous and anxious the entire morning. I can count the people I trust with my son in one hand. Leaving him with strangers was making me feel uneasy. But all that went away once we were in line waiting for his teacher. I could tell he was also nervous. Sitting on the box of wipes we brought in. Quietly and thoughtful. I wonder what was going through his mind!?!?!

(The school supplies list had a box of wipes listed. We usually buy a box with 5 packs for our home. & that's what I bought for them.)

11:30am Pre-K teachers finally show up. We walk with them to class and get ready to say our goodbyes. By the way, why do the teachers make us fill out the same forms we already filled out for the office staff???

I had to fill a form out fast, which took away from me watching my son's reactions etc... I'm glad he didn't cry because I would have been crying too!

11:50 Walking out of the school. Nervous... & very curious. I want to know every detail!!!

Can't wait to pick him up and hear all about his new friends.

Let me know your experience with your children's first day of school. I'd love to hear all about it. Thank you for reading my thoughts!

Xoxo,

Five nights at freddy's 5th birthday party....

I know... I know... Five nights at freddy's aren't exactly the characters you'd expect a 4 or 5 year old would like. My son however is obsessed with these ugly looking characters. He has been watching their music videos and such for a couple months now. Therefore, his birthday party theme this year was obviously Five nights at freddy's. I opted to do it friendly and not scary with the "nightmare" version. For you mommas, who have kids obsessed with these characters. Here are some ideas for your theme party. We held the party at a local park. Set up tents, ice coolers, tables and chairs. Invitations... I like to be simple when it comes to invitations. I send out a custom made invitation through text messages or make an event on Facebook. (Most our family and friends are on there) When I say custom invitation, I mean custom made by me. 😁 Food... Since the characters like to eat pizza & Fred Bear Fazbear works at a pizzeria. (Or something) The ma...

Getting comfortable in my own skin...

This year I will be turning 30!!! Where and how that happened? I have no idea,,, What I do know, is that it has taken me a very long time to accept myself. As a matter of fact, I'm currently still working on it. Through the years I have struggled with learning to love myself. Never completely content with my appearance. Whether it was my teeth, face, features, body. You name it! In the past I have even contemplated getting surgery. What stopped me? The money of course! As well as the scary stories told by friends. Which often times they hear from others. Postpartum, I suffered from weight gain. It took me years to loose the weight. Even then, my body is not perfect. Does that define me? Do my looks define me? Of course NOT! I know that; However that doesn't change the fact that I obsess over my weight, and constantly weigh myself. My point with all this rambling is, that it's never too late to learn to LOVE ...
