I wish I had a picture of Casey's first day at a new school but I don't. Sorry. Well Today I took Casey to to his new school, Trimmier Elementary. I enrolled him which took an hour and a half, it totally sucked but if I want him to go on to 2nd grade then he needs to finish 1st. The office finally found him a teacher so Hollian and I followed the lady from the office with Casey and as soon as we got to the class Casey threw the biggest fit, he was balling and saying,'' I want to go to my old home and go to my old school and play with my old friends.'' Just sobbing. It was the saddest thing to have to watch and I did want to cry myself because for the last 3 years he never did this before he went to school, even before his first day of preschool he didn't cry. I finally calm him down, but the tears still flowing, I left. I hated that I left but what else was I supposed to do. Around 11:00am I went to the school because I needed to sign another form and standing in the office I see Casey and the rest of the class walking hand in back of them walking to lunch, he was really happy and laughing so I decided to go to the lunch room to check on him. When I spotted Casey he immediately saw me so I walked to the table with him and ate with him and he was telling me how many friends he already had and also that he won a prize out of the prize box because he was being the best behaved, surprisingly considering how the morning went. I had to leave because lunch was over and he was ok with it and gave me a hug and a kiss and told me he loved me, as I walking away he told me he didn't want to come back tomorrow so we will see how tomorrow goes and this time I will take pictures :D

Well Life sure seems to be hard right now. My husband got a job in Killen, Texas and on April 3,2009 he started on the 15 hour drive to Texas, the sad part (well there are a couple of them) is that he took my 4 year old little boy Jared with him and Jared is a total momma's boy ( when it comes down to it). Brandon took Jared to help me out because I had just gotten home from the hospital from having a hysterectomy and 2 kids is easier than 3. (Brandi, I don't know how you had 5 C- sections. The hysterectomy was so painful, they even gave me a spinal so that way when I woke up I wouldn't be hurting as much. You are one of the strongest people I know to get cut open like that 5 times.) Ever since Brandon and Jared left it has been an emotional rollercoaster, I feel so incomplete and my bed is so empty. I am moving to texas at the end of May so my son can finish school and so I can heal so it is going to be a very long and sad 8 weeks until I can see them again.
