Knowing full well that it was going to be a stressful day for Ledger, we had planned to get a special celebration meal for dinner after his first day of school. It being a big day for Diana too made it all the better. It's a good thing we planned on something special because Ledger needed it. Diana and I walked the the middle school to pick Ledger up at the end of his day and when he came out it was pretty clear that things did not go very well... He was not happy at all. He didn't really want to talk about it, so I handed him his scooter and he took off as fast as he could toward home. Oh well. Diana and I watched him scoot off into the distance and just enjoyed our own little walk home. When we got there Ledger was a little more open to talk about the day. He was happy to see all his friends and meet a bunch of new ones, but he was so mad about his locker! He shared his frustration about having to try and open the lock on the locker and how he failed time after time. Poor kid, those twist combination locks can be really tricky! We assured him that he would quickly figure it out and by this time next week he would have gotten so used to it that he would be able to do it without even thinking about it. He was skeptical... Fortunately we got to finish the day off with some delicious pizza and pasta from the Hut, which made everyone a little bit happier!
