I am beat. I think I was as nervous as the kids were for their first day. We’re still trying to get the rhythm of how our days are going to be. I am always the first one to wake up. I need my early morning alone time go out and feed the animals and then have coffee on the patio. I go over everything that I need to do that day.

Jackson woke up and I made him breakfast and then I woke Hannah up because I was taking Jackson first since Hannah didn’t have a class until later. This is going to hopefully change when she goes to see if she can get her schedule changed.

After I got everyone off I came home to prep dinner, clean the house and then get ready to head back to Kilgore. I was so happy to hear that they had run into their friends. Jackson and his best friend found the coffee shop in the student center, which he was impressed with. Hannah was with one of her best friends. They actually all hung out together. Hannah and Jackson have never had a class together and now they have two, which I think is going to be a very good thing.

They are excited about school. They love the campus. I called my sister because she was a cheerleader at KC and she’s thrilled that they are both going there. We even sang the fight song over the phone because we are complete dorks. I hope that once all of the assignments start coming up they will still love it. I think they will.

Jackson is already contemplating where he wants to go once he finishes at KC. SFA is number 1 on the list right now.
