Tonight is open house for Ricky and Caiden. Ricky is going into the 6th grade so he will be at the middle school. This is Caiden’s first year of school. I can’t believe that Ricky is going to the middle school. I am happy but also apprehensive for both my boys. They are growing up so fast. Middle school is a whole different ball game than elementary school. I am hoping that Ricky will stay focused on getting good grades and being involved in many activities. We are already looking at what activities can help him get into a good COLLEGE…. (I know it’s EARLY but it is right around the corner and will come faster than we know it). Caiden is another story J He is our daredevil but our clinger too. He’s our temper tantrum child but also the loving and puppy dog faced one too. He can be so unruly at times but then he smiles and kisses you and you just want to eat him up. I’m afraid that the temper tantrums will happen at school and the teacher won’t know what to do with him. I’m also afraid that I may have to fight to get him on the school bus. I know I may be thinking about this too hard but I am a planner and I like to try and be prepared for anything that may happen. At Open House tonight we will meet their teachers and maybe my nerves will calm down some. This is the beginning of a new chapter for both of them and I am hoping it will lead to many, many happy endings….
