I haven't posted much lately because things have been really quiet around here. Xavier starts school next week and he's really nervous but there's not much to share. So I thought I'd share a little story.
Monday was school registration. It's an important time to go up to the school for lunch program information, bus passes, school pictures and anything else. Many school clubs have sign-ups as well. I left the task to my capable husband who did a wonderful job making sure everything was taken care of.
Later I got a chance to sit and talk with Xavier about how it went. I'm trying to get him excited about his first day of school because he's so worried about it. He told me he signed up for chess club. So I asked if he saw any other group he was interested in. He replied that there weren't that many groups there - chess, cheer, athletics were about it. Then with great enthusiasm he says "Where was FFA? I really wanted to sign-up. I didn't plan my schedule that way not to do FFA." (Xavier is doing the agricultural science/math track with the idea it would help him with FFA - I let him because I think it will interest him more). Then he says, "I really want to do FFA. I want one of those swanky jackets." That's my boy - always got his priorities straight.
