Our kids had their first day of school today. I haven’t seen our oldest to know how his day went, but our youngest had a good day. I don’t think either one of them was really ready to go back, but I told them they didn’t really have a choice lol I know that even different parts of Florida have different start days, but it seems like everybody I talk to their kids go back at completely different times than ours It was a little bittersweet we have a senior and then we have a eighth grader so one is getting ready to be done with school and one’s getting ready to be done with middle school after this year. I’m just glad they are back to school. If I have to hear, I’m bored one more time I’m going to go insane. Lol

Not the “I’m bored” trope! I couldn’t say that around my dad or he’d put us to work.

I do that to she child. She’ll say she’s bored and I’ll say then help me clean… Sidearm she’s not bored.

Hopefully they had a good first day. They do have to go back at some point. Even mine don't necessarily want to go back, but they're gonna have to.
