Exhausting

That pretty much sums up our week, especially for Kyle. Full day kindergarten is exhausting for him. A couple of times this week he's fallen asleep on the bus ride home from school. He's not the only one though. Most of the kindergartner's stagger off the bus with very sleepy eyes. On Monday I carried a very groggy Kyle home from the bus stop and he said, "Just plop me on the couch mom and bring me a snack." So that's become our routine. Evenings can be a little touch and go with a five year old who's physically and mentally spent. Numerous times I've had to remind Jacob not to "poke the bear". Any little trigger can set him off into an emotional melt down.
Mornings are rough too. Here's Kyle waiting for his breakfast on his makeshift bed of bar stools and a backpack for a pillow.
