What a Day!!



John Henry had a GREAT day! We are allowed to pick up our kindergarteners at 2:30 if we are willing to get to the school and wait at the front door - so at 2:05 I was walking to the front door and noticed John Henry's class on the playground. I tried not to let him see me as I hid behind a tree trying to take some more pictures. One of the mothers standing there said I looked like paparazzi! Luckily, I was not the only mom with camera in hand. Several more walked up with theirs, so I didn't feel so silly. A few minutes later the door flew open and I heard, "MOMMY!" and there stood my baby - the first one out the door, but he quickly turned around and held the door open for his teacher and other classmates (I was so proud!) He had such a great day and told me ALL about it ALL the way home. He made a few new friends and told me about the fun things he did today. I was so glad to get him back - I watched the clock A LOT today, but knowing that he was having so much fun was worth it. I am so proud of my big boy!

What a wonderful day .... I know he had fun and learned a few things to. And oh, the new friends he'll have ... (all those birthday parites to buy for), you've only just begun!

It's hard to believe our boys are big enough to spend all day at school. I know you miss him as much as I miss Hayne. We need to get together during the day and scrapbook!
