Off to School

I am going to try and process my morning while I type. Might be interesting. Joshua was dressed and ready to go this morning!! He was so excited to start public school and I was thankful for that! The whole family walked Joshua the couple of blocks to school and as we took pictures, I cried. I just couldn't help it. Believe me, the cord was cut long ago, but Joshua is a boy that I like to hang with!! He loves Jesus and has such a big heart!! I was debating about walking into school with him, and then I saw him trekking down the wrong hallway, so I steered him in the right direction. I was then stopped and given the NO STROLLERS ALLOWED IN SCHOOL EVER speech. I understand this lady has a job to do, but I missed my moment with my son! She must have figured I was confused or mentally challenged...cause she went on and on and on about fire codes and safety procedures. I said "OK!" and my son was gone. I managed to yell down the hall to him and wave. Why didn't I walk him to class? Why didn't I let this woman know that I wasn't retarded(I know that is not a PC term ..sorry) and thank her for her time and find my son again for one last hug? I was mad! I felt like I was in trouble and only wanted to push my son in his unwanted stroller OUTSIDE! LEAVE ME ALONE! Oh, an angry blogger is no good to anyone so I will stop after I tell you what happened at the bank to top it all off! I knew the bank teller and she mentioned that her daughter is due in November but that I was so much bigger than her! She said she could tell it was my fourth!!(Both statements say to me,"You're HUGE!") She also asked if I was JUST a mom or did I work?! I managed to say that I am not JUST a mom and I work very hard at home...I forced a smile at the JUST a bank teller and left to take deep, cleansing breaths in the van. LEAVE ME ALONE!
I have now come up with a million things I could have said to these women but I simply must move on to do what I do best. Take care of the two cherubs with me and count the hours until I can pick up Joshua!! :)
