Kindergartener!


The time has come! William has his first day of school today!

We met his teacher, Mrs. Saunders, last night and found out that he is in the "Lady Bug Room" so he can remember where he belongs. He was a little nervous at the school and a little bit after.

But, Matthew gave him (and Lily) a father's blessing, which was wonderful, and William was so excited after that. We picked out what clothes he would wear (he has a uniform, so it wasn't too difficult) and made his lunch last night before bed.

This morning, we got up, got dressed, had breakfast, and were out the door by 7:15! William remembered where his class was, his teacher's name, where his locker was and desk was. They all had play-doh on their tables, so he started to play. No tears at our good bye, which is a blessing! But, it makes it a little easier knowing it's only a half day. I'll pick him up soon. Now, come Tuesday on his first full day, who knows if I can keep my cool!

He looks so grown up!

Mrs. Saunders, take care of this sweet boy for me!

Cute little name on his cute little desk! Love his hair cut, too. Well, like the Walrus said..."The time has come." So glad today was tear-free (for both of you). Yay William!!! Thought about him this morning.
