239/365 school is in session

Kaeden (grade 1) Shelby (grade 12)

well we survived.

day one is complete.

Kaeden attended (even though he did advise me last week, that he"didn't have room in his schedule for school, especially a full day")

and is even willing to give it another go tomorrow.

He was pleasantly surprised that it was not as bad as he thought,

it was almost "a little fun".

Shelby did well,

her hair worked out, her outfit rocked, she looked good

her boyfriend picked her up for school

she saw her friends

and had plans to chill out for the afternoon

all very important parts of a successful first day

until...

an unplanned trip to the hospital with

a very severe suspected allergic reaction

complete with hives

and as an extra bonus,

a most likely not related

possible strep throat diagnosis

It was a crazy afternoon and

Shelby is a bit worse for wear

but she is home and hopeful

that she can go to school tomorrow

or at the very least the lake this weekend.

Last year she started out the school year

with appendicitis and an eventful trip to the Fernie hospital

and I guess she needed to find something to top it this year.

Here is hoping day 2 is much calmer.
