And it's started again. The first day of school. I drove my daughter to school this morning instead of making her ride the bus, and I think that helped her first day jitters. The other thing that helped was blasting Skillet's 'Monster' all the way to school.
I remember the excitement. New clothes. New school supplies. I loved it, and I loved the idea of school, even though I was an outsider and pretty much bullied all throughout school. But, I did well, got through school, and I like to think that education from a small town school has served me well.
Caitlin, if I do say so myself, is a brilliant child. She's an old soul...she often says things that make you look at her and think, "wow." She makes leaps of logic that a child her age should not be able to make. I couldn't tell you if she's an Indigo child, Rainbow child, or Crystal child, because I'm not up on the timelines...but yeah, the kid is something.
She was nervous about school though. First day back. First day of 4th grade. First time with a male teacher. First time in AIG...lot of firsts. It's a lot for a kid to handle at once...but I'm sure she's going to come through with flying colors.
