Open House and PTO

Hopefully all the mother's had a wonderful day yesterday!! Mine was nice; if only my kids had stopped fighting for five minutes for me to enjoy it.

Tonight was Open House at Macy's new school. She and her friend Paige led us through the building and showing everything off. She is definitely not nervous about changing schools!! She is ready to go NOW. The school is a definate improvement over the one we are at now--much newer, nicer, bigger. It seems like a nice place. She already seemed at home there, which makes me feel better.

The PTO meeting was afterwards. The PTO meetings at her old school lasted 15-20 minutes, tops. In, out, little discussion. Everything was already decided for you and you just nodded your head. Not so at her new school. Typed agendas, detailed budget analysis, votes on every item on the proposed budget. My head was swimming!! The meeting was an hour and a half--they said they are usually only an hour (?!?! only an hour!!?!?) but tonight's was longer. Goodness!!! Can't wait. :)
