Wallking Through Middle School

Middle School I have very little memory’s of that point in my life. I have a general sense of friends, my first dance recital, my first dance, graduation and few highs and lows. The general knowledge of changes that my body went through besides that it is a distant memory. Walking the halls of my daughters Middle School and looking at the children is like WOW it seems the same. Some our still going through awkward stages in life, voice changes, acne, trying to find the best look to express individuality. It’s amazing that our children grow up so fast and maneuver through the land scape of socialization and making friends.

The first year of Middle School is nearly completed. I started off more nervous then my daughter. I am impressed with how well that she has done with keeping up with her grades, the personalities of at least 8-9 different teachers and making new friends. I can breathe a bit and hope that the next two years go as smoothly. More is involved besides getting an education these children our getting to better know themselves likes and dislikes.

Trust I see lots of bumps in the future but I am not as nervous with the knowledge of what to expect. Next week I will attend my daughter’s first musical concert as she plays the Euphonium to see if all that practicing and her sister yelling she is hurting my ears paid off. Middle School sounds so scare still but hopefully my household will survive it and move smoothly to High School when that day comes I might need to pause and take a breather. Until then I will enjoy it and continue to ask how was your day to get a feel for how she is doing.
