Kindergarten

I survived the first day {so did Mac!}.  It was a great first day.  Everyone up early.  Took first day pics.  Made it to school on time.  Navigated through the car line. And no one cried until the back car door shut.  Then I lost it.  Mac on the other hand never looked back.  I would call the day a success!

We met Mac’s teacher – Mrs. Slay – yesterday at orientation.  Isn’t she just adorable?!?!  We forgot to get a picture with the assistant teacher, Mrs. LeMaster, so we will have to do that soon.  

All grown up and ready to go!  He insisted on wearing his belt today and tucking in his shirt even though the dress code is loosened a little for the first few months of kindergarten.  {he came home with no belt on and his shirt untucked.  Oh well at least he started the day right!}

I was trying to take a picture as he was quickly being yanked out of my car and rushed to his class by a total stranger greeted by the principal and escorted to class by a volunteer.  Hard to see through my tears, so I did the best I could while driving off and trying to avoid hitting any of the other 8 million kids and parents who were wandering everywhere. 

One of the mom’s in Mac’s class snuck in and took a few pics as school was starting this morning.  She sent me this to brighten my day and reassure me that Mac was doing just fine!

 

My sweet mommy sent me this note and flowers to the office today.  Was everyone more worried about me or Mac surviving?  Either way we both made it and we are now both exhausted.  It will be an early bedtime for us tonight.
