Kindergarten

Jackson and Daddy
before heading to bus stop

waiting for the bus!

Wow, as much as I can't believe Lauren is 4 I really can't believe I have a kid in Kindergarten!  Today is his fourth day and so far he has loved it.  He says his favorite part is PE but he doesn't remember what they did there.  He also likes lunch because you can eat whatever you want first.  In preschool the teachers made you eat your sandwich before chips/treats.  I thought it was funny he was so amazed with his new-found freedom.

Getting off the bus on the first day-
Such a happy face to see!

On the second day he didn't get off the bus so I had to stop it as it was pulling away, and there he was, sitting on the first row.  After the clueless bus driver told me she didn't know who any of the kids were I told him to get off and asked why he had stayed on.  He said the kid sitting by him didn't move.  We had a little talk about asking people to move when its time for you to get off the school bus.  Other than that little issue everything has gone perfect.
He loves his teacher and a friend that we have know since he was a baby is in his class.  I think it always helps to have a familiar face in a new situation.
I went yesterday to help with lunch and it was cute seeing all the kids.  They aren't allowed to talk during lunch and there is classical music playing in the background.  Jackson was so cute, wanting to hold my hand and have me stand by him the whole time.  I know that before long he won't want me to come help his class so I appreciated the opportunity.

I told him I would make whatever he wanted for
dinner after the first day of school. He chose
Grilled Cheese, Corn on the cob and Watermelon.



Keep up the good work Jackson, we are so proud of you!
