First Day of School
Today is Calista’s first day of Kindergarten! She woke up excited — Time for school! I get to wear my new clothes! Will I have homework?
It quickly went downhill from there.
She cried when I did her hair, whined about breakfast and didn’t want to eat, was grumpy, sassy and generally bratty most of the morning. Then she was crying, saying she was going to be scared, she wanted to stay home, etc, etc.
However, by the time we got her out the front door, her mood was remarkably improved and she did great when we got there. I took her in to school and down to her classroom and Mrs. R showed her where to put her backpack, sweater and lunch bag. Then she went into her classroom and got her name tag and headed off for a story.
I went out into the hall and did some snack sign up, and before I left, I peeked in and she was sitting with two other kids and looked like she was having fun. Hopefully, she will have a great first day!
She is very excited about getting homework, too… we’ll see how excited she is about it once she knows what homework is!
Enjoy…
