First Day of Kindergarten

I think we did very well for the first day of Kindergarten. He went in with a brave little face and I didn't cry. The not crying could have had something to do with the fact that we were almost late and Brian was along. He would have gave me so much grief. Yeah, we got there at 8:44 you heard me right. We were late. Big surprise there, isn't it? He came out at 2:15 with a bird on his head. It was his birthday hat. It was very cute. And new shorts. We had an accident in music. This was not tramatic for him. It was for Brian, I and his teacher. Everyone loved his pudding cups for his birthday treats. I was going to do popsicles but that would be cruel on the first day.

Day 2 we were a little sad to go back as we didn't have a friend. But he came home and told us all about it. It sounded like he had a great second day. Today was the first day they actually had play time before school and he didn't want to do that. He didn't think he would hear the bell. I can't wait to hear how today went. On Wednesday all the questions were confusing him and mixing him up. I get to start asking questions today. I bet I have more than 20.

Kindergarten Registration

If you are a member or president of your local PTA group please listen. Have a separate Kindergarten registration day. We new to the school do not know what we are doing and all the information you throw at us is way confusing. The parent informational meeting they had in April did not tell me anything important I needed to know. How may forms do I have to fill out? And give me some most people, you know "Most people pay two months for lunches at registration." "Most people pay one semester of milk." "Most people don't have a break down because there is so much information thrown at them." "Ma'am most people don't sit down in line and start babbling like a baby because they can't make a decision." Have some patients for us Newbies all of you that are pros at registration. And to think I wasn't going to have children until I was 99, I would have to have a heart attack then.
