Good

Today was Trev's first day at his new school. Trev is not a kid that gets overly emotional, so when he cries I know that he is extremely upset.

He was fine this morning until I put the van in park and it was time for him to get out. He started to cry and it was all I could do to not cry with him. Being the tough boy that he is, he got himself together and went in, all his own. Thankfully he was met by one of his teachers as soon as he got out of the van and she was so nice and upbeat, she immediately put him at ease.

As soon as I pulled away I started bawling. I just cried and cried and cried, second guessing putting him in the school to begin with, taking him from his friends.

Damn hormones did not help at all.

I went immediately to see Dad, he was supposed to have his kidney biopsy and I wanted to be there and I only had time to go in the morning. But Dad didn't end up having the biopsy, his platelets are too low and the doctor is just not comfortable doing the biopsy right now. Instead they discharged him and they will check his platelets in a week to ten days and if everything looks good, they will do the biopsy as an outpatient procedure.

I left there and went back to pick up Trev, he had a half day. I was on edge, hoping that he'd had a good day. When he came out, he was smiling so I knew it couldn't have been too bad and when he got in the van he was so excited and happy. He had a wonderful day and he can't wait to go back tomorrow.

My son can't wait to go to school. I never thought I'd hear those words from him.

I nearly started crying, damn hormones. And I felt like I could breath, I didn't even notice how tense I'd been.

We went to lunch and then I took him to get his haircut since his hair was too long for the dress code. When we got home, I was beyond exhausted. I mean, I've been tired the last 2 weeks or so but wow, it was like my body just shut down. I laid down and fell asleep and slept for over an hour and really I probably would've slept longer if my SIL hadn't called and I'm thankful she woke me up because it was almost time for Trev's soccer practice.

I feel so much better, I guess I was more worried about Trev starting this new school than I thought. And now Dad is home so it'll be easier to visit with him.

At least for today, everything is good.
