First of the Last

Tuesday was Kasen's first day of his last year of preschool. He was so excited at the idea of going back to school. It was a long summer for him without school. He was always asking when he got to go back. He knew that when he started seeing more school buses on the road, it was only a matter of time before he got to go back too.

When I dropped him off, I had to walk him in to drop off my contract and to drop off tuition. I started to get out of the car and Kasen hurried to say, "It's ok mom, you stay in the car, I can walk myself in" I guess he grew up over the summer because he never had a problem with me walking him in to school every day last year. Sad.

When I picked him up at school he was crying hysterically and could hardly breathe because of it. He was freaking out. Wouldn't eat his lunch that Miss Cassie fixed him. Plain spaghetti and a hawaiian sweet roll. Those are 2 things he would TOTALLY eat any other day. I just assumed he was super tired because he didn't sleep well the night before AT ALL.

I got him home and carried him out of the car, at which point I realized he was REALLY hot. I took his temp and it was 103.6! Yikes. I gave him motrin and put him to bed. He was ready and willing to go to bed. He had a fever with as high as 103 and as low as 101 until yesterday (friday). The Dr said it was just viral and it would go away in a day or two. It did. I was just worried because the temp was so high for the most part. 103 is no good for my sweet boy!

So he ditched school on Thursday and is ready to go back Tuesday again!
