John's first day of 1st grade was a success. I think he was testing the waters (per his teacher) but he realized quickly that 1st grade is serious business!!!!
The morning started bright and early (oh how I wish my children would stop waking up BEFORE 5:00am,) an order of chocolate chip pancakes were placed by the big guy, his lunch packed with an extra special treat, pictures taken and then we were out the door. When we got to school, he lined up and the teacher came out and got them.....and would not allow parents to come in. Sniff sniff. It was hard for me but I understand her reasoning.
The day dragged on forever.....we went out to breakfast, shopping with a friend, made cupcakes for after school snack, took a nap (Hopie,) and FINALLY it was time to go pick him up from school (okay, it wasn't actually time and we did sit in the school parking lot for 30 minutes but I just missed him sooooooo much!)
He gave a two thumbs up when asked how his first day was!!!!!
