Back to School...

Well here they are, all dressed and ready for their first day of school. Austin is a junior at Bay High, Logan
is an 8th grader at North Bay Haven, and the twins are in 6th grade at North Bay Haven.
It has proven to be a difficult start to the new school year. Cobie and Jacob are having
a hard time adjusting. They got upset last night after family prayer.. they didn't want to go back.
We spoke about it, when we were done, they felt better and went to bed. This morning
they were a little teary eyed, but put their brave face on. We had our morning prayers, then off
they went.. pretty smooth. Tim went by and waved at them in thier classroom, when he left, they came barreling out crying after him...After I got to work, Jacob called just bawling.. wanting me to pick
him up, that he missed me and wanted to go home. I told him that he needed to stay..
the staff at the school are amazing.. very sweet. They are very understanding.
I wonder if this is normal? Logan didn't have this problem when he started middle school.  Maybe
it's because they are the "babies" of the family? Hard on the moma too. I just want to
fix it and go swoop them up and take them home... just can't do that.
I hope things get better.. it's killing me. :(
