FIRST DAY!!!

Elijah started kindergarten today.  And quite frankly, I thought I would be a blubbering mess... And ALMOST did because of my loving husband.  sigh.  but I made it through.  Grace had a super hard time without her brother here all day... but of course, when he got home, they fought.  sigh.  Grace will start her preschool in a couple of weeks, and I may really break down then.  Both my babies away from me... eek!!

Anyway, Elijah did great!  He told me he had fun, there were frisbees flying in the road (apparetnly), and lobsters being built and knocked down, chickens drawn, and new friends introduced, and oh yeah, they read The Kissing Hand (he came home and drew me a kissing hand and THAT almost made me turn into a blubbering mess!), and there was a slew of instructions about the Green Folder (yes, it deserves caps) and what happens with it, and there were two books that he got to look at during rest time... all the books are silly books in the class.

AND after a moment of panic (my child was not waiting for me to be picked up....)  the first thing out of his mouth before even buckling his seat belt, "Mommy, I had a great day at school!"

I'm so glad!!
