Montgomery started Kindergarten this year!
(...yes...I know...
...right after we dropped Job off at college...
...I'm not sure I can find the right words either... ;o)
...soooo...I think we'll just flow with these...)
...Montgomery started Kindergarten this year!
She was verrryyy excited, because this year she gets to go to "big girl" school with Josiah and Johngideon.
I think she had a brief moment of nervousness when we actually stepped outside to head to school, but then again, carrying a big girl backpack and wearing the big kid school uniform for the first time can take a little getting used to.
Johngideon thought it was really neat that Gommy would be at his school this year.
The school wisely has a staggered first day for Kindergarteners, so Gommy went in for just an hour, with just a few other students from her class, to meet her teacher and get used to the classroom a bit. First order of business - unpacking the bookbag.
Then it was off to choose a silly pair of sunglasses...
...so her teacher could take a silly photo of her for the classroom bulletin board...
I thought that was a fun, creative way for the kids to get to see one another, and start to get to know their classmates.
After a crafts activity (making the cheerful hanging nametag in the first photo above) with her new teacher and her new classmates who were also attending that intro hour, Montgomery got to spend some free play time getting comfortable in the classroom.
It was a great first day at Kindergarten, and she left ready and excited to go back for more.
Here's to an awesome school year for my awesome, smart, big Kindergarten girl!
Much Love. Take Care.
