Home from first day of kindy!

Kindergarten was a success!
Here is Sammy getting off the bus.


He was all smiles after school yesterday, and he had a lot to say about his first day! He and Freddie even played school while I made dinner last night, and I quietly listened off to the side so I could learn even more about his experience. It was so good! He likes all the different subjects, he kept talking about Math, Recess and Quiet Time. He told me his teacher gave him a green pillow for quiet time and he gets to keep it in his cubby. He brought him some impressive coloring he did in Art, his Wednesday "Special." And on and on about Day 1.

Here he is showing me how he was tagged with his bus number.

He said a man wrote this on him when he got off the bus upon arriving at school.

Here is me, watching intently for my boy to return home.

I talked all big for months and months but it was one of the longest. days. ever. I kept wondering what my boy was up to, if he was making friends, if he was happy or if he was sad and missing us. I was so happy to see him climb off the bus with a BIG smile and start talking nonstop about his day!

Last night I told Sammy that I was happy for him because he likes school so much. He told me, "I'm excited for myself!" I shouldn't have worried at all. Sammy is the perfect kiddo for a school setting.
