I am so glad I had a couple of days after the other kids started school to get used to the idea of dropping off Benjamin in Kindergarten. He seemed excited. I wasn't sure what emotions I would get from him, but he was excited and ready but a little nervous. His siblings all fought over who would sit by him on the bus. That made me happy. I love seeing my kids take care of each other.
He chose his clothes. Isn't he handsome?!
We got to the school pretty early. No one was lined up yet. I was glad it wasn't utter chaos like it was on the first day of school for all of the other students.
Benjamin was first in line to come into his classroom.
His hook
His classroom
His seat
His teacher, Mrs.Hebert.
Both Jackson and Grant had the same teacher for Kindergarten. She is great.
I said goodbye and started getting choked up, but smiled and waved. He waved back and Luke, Eden and I headed out. As I reached the door to leave the school another mom was leaving with me and said "Oh goodness" to herself as she left her Kindergartner. I said: "I feel the same way!".
After school he came running off of the bus to tell me that he "loved it". I was so pleased.
I didn't even have a knot in my stomach when I sent him off to school this morning. So far so good.
