Jacob's First Day of Kindergarten...WOW!!! What a day! And what an emotional roller coaster! Jacob had such a great time and is looking forward to going back tomorrow. He met several new friends. He loved going to the library and playing on the fire engine playground most of all. He came home with a handprint and an arts/crafts homework assignment. He liked homework and wanted to know if there was some more to do. He saved half of his lunch and brought it home to share with his dad...what a sweet boy. He also liked it that his teacher could play the piano and played a game called echo where they would repeat back to her what she did or said on the piano. He was really happy to see us at the end of the day but anxious to go back. He wanted to know when he could ride the school bus but we explained we are "walkers". Cannot imagine being strong enough to send my baby off by himself in a school bus across town. I would wind up following them in the car to make sure everything was ok. Yikes!

Got Julia signed up for Toddler Time again at the library. That starts back up next week. John has a trip to Rome tomorrow afternoon so he is taking Jacob to school in the morning and I'll pick him up. I can't believe my child is in school. It doesn't seem real. Julia had a blast today here at home by herself and didn't really seem to notice her brother was gone. But she loved it when it was time to go to school to get him. Just waiting for the fit when she wants to stay with him.
