KINDERGARTEN!
How is this possible? My baby is going to big girl school. OH MY HEART, I don't know if I can handle it. She has been safe in her primrose bubble for the last few years and now it's time for public school with all new friends.
To prepare, we went to "meet the teacher" night at school, saw her classroom, practiced opening lunch box items and wearing her backpack, and sporting new clothes!
Then came the first day! I was holding back tears the whole time. She looked so small walking in with that giant backpack.
She was so excited for her first half day at school! We took a family photo and I cried walking out.
She is so brave.
That week was off and on with school, so she was excited to also spend time at Primrose in the Kindergarten classroom with some of her buddies.
She cried on her "last day" at Primrose. So did I.
What a great first week! Kindergarten friends, Primrose friends, Riding the bus with our neighbor Julia for the first time, posing with the new yard sign, being in Mrs. Clinage's class ,and I even came to lunch!.
