Today was an important day for Julia, middle school orientation. I can't believe my Julipooh is going to middle school. It seems like it was just yesterday that I brought her home from the hospital. Now I will be sending her off to middle school.
We had to wake up early this morning to get ready to go. Today was also picture day and I wanted to make sure her hair was dry before her pictures were taken. When she wears her hair curly she has to wet it in the morning then let it air dry. I am not going to like when summer is over and I have to start getting up at 5:30am. My days are going to very long.
The orientation went great. We picked up her schedule, received her books, got her locker combo, and found where all of her classes were. We met her advisor/science teacher. He was really nice. Talking with him and seeing the school really eased Julia's nerves. She said she is now ready for middle school and less nervous.
I know middle school always sucks because it is an awkward time in kids' lives, but I think Sarah Banks is a really nice school with a great staff and it might not be that bad after all. I'm even a little excited.
I can't believe she's going to middle school either!!! She's going to do great though and you are right, it is a great school! Wishing her all the best. Please tell her I said hello!
