Well, Brooke survived her first week of Kindergarten and she seems to love it! She gets excited to tell me about her day when I pick her up and she always says "I love Kindergarten." The only thing she doesn't like is waiting for me to pick her up. At 2:50 they take the kids that get picked up (which is pretty much the whole school, I am not exaggerating when I say nobody rides buses here) to a room where they wait until their number is called. 3:00 is dismissal time. I leave the house at 2:30 and get to her school at about twenty to 3. I sit in a line of cars and I am usually about the 15th car in a line that literally wraps around the school out into the street and down the road. She is usually in my car at about 3:07... but she says it takes forever. I fear the day I am running late and I end up last in line, she might have a panic attack :-)
Today, was Jade's first day of preschool. I ordered her backpack, lunch box, and water bottle back in June and to say she was thrilled is an understatement. She was jumping up and down, just ecstatic. She couldn't wait to go to school! She has been trying on her backpack almost everyday (even though it seems bigger than her), and she insisted on me saving a chocolate chip cookie from the batch that I made last week for her lunch box. Those cookies were finished in 2 days though, and obviously would have been stale, but she was just so stinkin' excited. So I'm making special brownies for her to bring on Thursday.
I'm praying she has a good day! These kiddos are getting SO big SO fast... just don't ask me that during a meltdown/temper tantrum- because then I would tell you something different :-)
