Changing schedules
Sofia has finished her first week of school. She has loved every minute. I think she likes that she gets to do something on her own. She is already a little like a teenager. I asked her what she did in school when I picked her up on Friday and she told me "I don't want to talk about it now. I'm tired and grumpy."! I had to laugh and wait for her to want to tell me. Eventually she did and I have learned even more today. I think she also expects me to already know exactly what she did.
With Sofia's new school our schedules have changed. Jason brings Sofia to school in the morning. They need to leave by 8am which means we have to make sure we get up on time without delays. I can't laze around and then get out for my run at 7:30 anymore. I have to make sure I am back by 7:45 so that I can help get Sofia ready and out the door. Jason needs to figure out his workout schedule as well since he used to leave our apartment at 8:30 to work out. The new schedule impacts Ali too. This is the first time Ali has ever been without Sofia. I thought it would be difficult for her but she seems to be loving her own space. Sometimes she wants me to play with her but so far she has been enjoying playing by herself. Our apartment is so quiet since noone is yelling, "that's mine", "she took it", "I don't want her doing that", or yelling "the crocodiles are coming" or whatever other imaginary game the two of them play. It just seems when they are together the noise level is just high. With just Ali she plays quietly and when she wants me she just walks over to me rather than screaming for me from across the apartment.
