I thought I'd throw in the blog that Kaitlyn had her first day of school yesterday, and James will have his first day of Kindergarten tomorrow!
I can't believe my first born is 5 and already going into Kindergarten. Before we know it 8th grade graduation will be here.
We went to his orientation today, and he hot to meet Mrs. Danagher (pronounced with the g silent: Dan-a-her). She has been at St. Margaret Mary for 22 years! She is very nice, and I think we're going to have a wonderful year.
I was a bit sad to see that we weren't in the same class as some of our friends from the Methodist School, however, I am excited to see that we are in the same class with some of my friends' girls. James will make wonderful friends and be able to play with all (the others that he knows) the Kindergartners on the field and eat with them during lunch.
Kaitlyn started at the Methodist School yesterday with Mrs. Santilli. She will be going three days a week, and perhaps attending lunch bunch a few times. She had a fun first day, telling us about what she did (played on the orange slide, in the sand box, played with Ava, etc.) and even told us enthusiastically what she had for a snack. It was cute since while they were sitting at the table for lunch together, it was James who asked her about what she had had for a snack. It'll be a lot of fun to watch and hear their conversations about school over the next year.
Tomorrow morning will be an early start for all of us. That part I'm NOT excited about. I am excited for James, but nervous for him too. It'll be a long day which will probably make for a crabby boy at the end of the day.
I promise to post photos of the first days of school!
