Two Days Done A Bajillion More To Go

So Sommer successfully finished her second day of grade 3 today. She has been doing really well. No sadness or saying she doesn't want to go. She hasn't even complained about getting up at 7 in the morning. I must admit it has been really nice to have all my kids asleep by 9. So I have some good stories from the past couple of days. First day of school we are all ready to walk out the door and I notice that Erik is playing with something on the carpet. I am filled with fear as I approach him and realize that it is poo. He has exploded and it leaked out of his diaper and all over the carpet. It's on his hands and legs and between his toes as he was rubbing his feet in it. I think it was the fastest clean up job in the history of baby poo. Why does stuff like that always happen when your about to walk out the door.
Next story:
Sommer's first day was great until the boy next to her pulled a knife out of his desk and said he was going to stab anyone that wasn't his friend. Not a play knife or even a pocket knife but a sharp knife knife. I have to say that I am very proud of Sommer because she immediately went and told the teacher. I talked to the principle today and it sounds like he has been suspended or something. How sad for the boy because he obviously has issues and how terrifying at the same time. The principle commended Sommer and told her she did the right thing. Wow... even in Tuscany. The principle assured me that she that action had been taken and that a plan was in place so I'm going to have to trust that.
I cleaned my house like a mad woman today because Sean's parents are arriving. They are bringing his Aunt for some dental work. The sprinklers continue to be a mystery. My children have gone insane so I am going to put them to bed now.
