Kindergarten here we come!!!
The having kids in school years have officially begun. Jillian started Kindergarten yesterday. She had a special breakfast that she chose. Eggo waffles with strawberries, raspberries & powdered sugar. Her school experience will be different from mine, she has year round school and uniforms. That is why her outfit is so plain. Things were crazy and confusing at school but we got her to the right place. She was just fine and did a great job telling Carter & I goodbye. I am happy to say I also did a great job & didn't cry at all. The PTA put on a Boo-hoo breakfast for parents in the cafateria. It was a cute idea and there definitely were some parent tears.
She is in morning Kindergarten so her day is from 9-11:40. When Carter & I picked her up she was happy and said she had a good day. She showed us things she learned like soda pop & silent cheer & the symbole for quiet, plus when the teacher says all eyes on me you look at her and say all eyes on you:). It was pretty cute. Jillian requested a special first day of school dinner and guess what it was! Broccoli soup!!! Yep, my kids love it.
Everything was great until she woke up this morning and announced she didn't want to go to school today. I told her I was sorry but it isn't a choice, and she has to go every day. That led to tears and nerves. She was pretty concerned this morning which broke my heart. It didn't help that Carter decided to throw a 20 min screaming tantrum. But we managed to get in the car, get to school & not have any more tears. I promised Jill we would stay until she walked into her room. Carter kept yelling out "Bye Jilly." Hopefully she will adjust quickly and not be so worried tomorrow. The second day seemed to be harder for a lot of kids.
