First Day of Kindergarten











Evan started Kindergarten yesterday. She got herself up at 6:30 am, dressed, and then came in to get us. She was so excited to go to 'Big School'; some of the children at 'Little School' can't even spell their name! Mike & I got to take her to Ms. Booker's and chat for a little while. We saw her friend Cade on the way in. She says that he is going to play football and wrestle, so she will be a cheerleader and wrestling coach. We stepped back out of her sight to watch a few more minutes when Evan started getting too clingy. Charlotte, who sits next to her, touched Evan with the play-dough Ms. Booker gave them. Evan gave her the look of death. It will be interesting to see that relationship develop.
When I picked her up this afternoon, she talked non-stop about her day. I love seeing her so excited. She couldn't wait to show us her Bear Binder - she brings it home each day in order to communicate back and forth with the teacher. We met MiMi and PaPa at the airport later, and she couldn't wait to show them, too. It seems like she has grown several inches - her legs look so long. She is changing quickly.
