First Day of School=Insanity

So today was the first day of school here, and even though we only have two kids in school so far, but one is in junior high (ack!!), and both kids are not in the neighborhood schools, so it is up to us to get them where they need to go. For Sarah, it will always be just us getting to and from school, but for Peter, I'm PRAYING that we will find a carpool that will work to get him there in the morning. Last year we were able to split the difference between Kendall and I, with him dropping off and me picking up. But with Sarah going to the west side of Davis county and Peter to the east side, I keep asking myself if it's worth it. I'm sure the neighborhood schools are great--everybody else sends their kids there, right? But at this point, I'm committed to this course of making sure they get the best education available to them, regardless of what it means. Right? I'm begging someone to tell me I'm doing the right thing.

So even though today was crazy, I'm reserving judgement until the first few weeks are over, and I can decide if it's going to work, or if I lost my brain.
