Our first day (second part)

I just returned from school, I left my son at the after school club (only for two hours) as he said he wasn't tired...I saw him alright, he got two stars for being a good boy today at school..so overall it hasn't being a bad day for us. On my way to school I saw this mother from my son's class, she was struggling trying to carry two scooters one on each hand..she saw me turning the corner but didn't stop or look again to say hi...however; I run after her and offered her my help to carry one of the scooters (am I too desperate?) she accepted and we walked together towards the school, I tried to make conversation about the weekend, honestly wasn't expecting much..but she ended up giving me every detail of what she was up to...(didn't ask about me though!)..never mind at least we had a chat and I hope she realized I can speak English. As soon as we arrived to school she left to chat with her friends and I stand alone waiting for my son. One step each day.... I saw my little one quite exited about his school today (at least one of us still is..)
