All summer long it seemed that Charlie was looking forward to starting his second year of school, but for some reason during the few weeks leading up to the first day of school Charlie started to say that he didn´t want to go because he was "worried". (The worries start at a young age these days). As a result, the first day of school was not the happiest for Charlie. (See the pictures below. ) Now, however I can happily report that he likes to go to school and he is no longer worried.
Since my shift starts later, I am able to take Charlie to school before I go to work. It is one of my favorite parts of the day because it gives us a chance to be together just the two of us. We live fairly close to the school so it is quicker just to walk and Charlie and I have some very "deep" conversations sometimes. For example, the other day out of the blue Charlie asked me, "Mom, why doesn´t Jesus have shoes?" I replied, "well, where Jesus lived it was very hot so he didn´t wear shoes or he wore sandals". To which Charlie responded, "But, mom, how do flip-flops fly?". Good question. Oh the things that make you go hmmm!
