The morning didn’t go as planned but thankfully Owen did fine throughout all of it. He woke up very early. He was very much ready for all the great things ahead. We only had one hitch in our giddy up but he took it in anxious stride.

I slept pretty well last night and I was feeling fine when I woke up except for my feet were swollen. I was thankful for the rest though and knowing that Owen was going back to school today made us both happy. I tried to get his morning bus for several days with no information so I took him to school. I was fine with doing it but he loves the bus so. And we still do not have his bus information yet. The county does not give the bus drivers enough time to prepare. We have always had wonderful bus drivers and aides and I’m so thankful for the way they interact with Owen.

I drove him to school and he was so excited about going to his class with his teacher. The bus brought him home and he was excited about that too. I looked at Owen’s daily report from his teacher and she said he transitioned well and had a great first day. That made my heart happy. I know that he is going to embrace this year with so much gusto and I know big changes will be happening. I can feel it.

I asked him what he ate at school. He told me had chocolate pudding for breakfast and popcorn, yogurt, pizza, and pretzels for lunch. I think a few of those might be a little bit of a coincidence to some songs he likes. He also told me he got to see his friends. And he is going to high school in September so he can watch channel 87 since they didn’t let him watch it today. Channel 87 to him is the Disney channel in our area. I am thankful he had a great first day.

He was very calm for the rest of the night and talked about his weekend. He is ready to see his grandma tomorrow and go to church on Sunday. I love my sweet baby O’s enthusiasm for his favorite things to do. He also told me he was excited about going to school on Monday. That makes me very happy.

Here’s to a great first day and I know many more to come. I’m thankful his day was such a success. He fell asleep quickly and was in a great mood all night. Let your day be filled with gladness and know that you are stronger than you think you are. Smiles to all and donut daze!

    I'm Lynn Browder. Owen's Mommy. The best moments in time are when I get to see the smile on his face and that giggle come from his heart.
