When we decided to move, perhaps we didn't take into consideration all the changes that our kids would have to face. A new neighborhood, new friends, new schools...
The middle school bus comes at 7 a.m., there's no study hall so homework has to be done at home, and the school is old and under construction. Parking is terrible! The receptionist is all smiles and cheeriness as she refuses every request I've made. She's put me in tears twice. Hopefully Braden finds it a bit more friendly, but friends are hard to make when you're in 8th grade. People come and go now days though and being the new kid doesn't have the stigma it used to.
As for the elementary school, our last one was new and beautiful. We traded it in for an older one with an outdoor campus, which I imagine will be fun when it's not 110 degrees outside. Everyone seems wonderful though and the girls thankfully have each other. Last year I was running between two different elementary schools, this year the girls all get on the bus together... a nice change! I think we'll all enjoy it!
Have fun kiddos!
