Stryde had his first day of school on Thursday. He lasted for about 30 minutes until they had to come and get Jennifer out of the teacher/parent first day meeting. This is a first I think. He has not been separated from us or Tata for more than 8 minutes since March 8th, 2003 (the day he came home from the hospital. I think he and/or his teacher is in for a rude awakening. He did make it the full day today, though he was hopped up on trains.
We know he will be fine, but the question is when. Though he is very brave and has no fear, he also wants what he wants, and does not console very easily. If he wants Tata, it does not matter how much candy you have, he gets what he wants. Here are some photos from his and Dryver’s first day and the past week on Edgehill.
