Madeline started kindergarten this year. She was so excited at Back-to-School night on Friday where we got to see her classroom and meet her teacher, Mrs. Boeding. She found her seat and beamed at her pink pencil box. She loved the dollhouse and told me how excited she was to play with that. On Monday Madeline had her first day of school while the older girls started the next day. However, Emma and Abby agreed to get dressed up in their first day of school outfits to take some photos with Madeline before we drove her to school. Mike, Peter, Abby, Myisha and I all drove Madeline to school and walked her to meet her new class. She was a little nervous but also excited. There were no tears when we said goodbye and only smiles as she followed her teacher to her new classroom. Emma and Andrew would have been there, but Emma had to be at the high school to help with the new freshman and Andrew had to be at work.
Abby and Emma had good first days as well, although they told me later that their first day of school wasn’t as exciting as Madeline’s first day. The middle school and high school teachers don’t waste any time and they came home with homework and many syllabuses to sign.
