First Day of Kindergaten

Emma's first day of Kindergarten was yesterday. Even though she's attending a full day program, yesterday was a getting to know you day to give the kids an opportunity to ease into a new environment. We went with her for the hour and a half - and she did great! We filled out all our paperwork, learned the rules of the class and got to explore the classroom to get familiar with where everything is...she even got to play on the playground - her favorite part! Today, however was a little different. Moms and Dads couldn't go into the classroom - we had to drop her off at the door and say I love you have a great day! Of course - today is rainy and cold - Emma held the umbrella the whole way - sobbing. Break my heart! But even through all the crying - she went into the room like the very big Kindergarten - 5 year old she is - and no matter what I am so proud! I pick her up after work and can't wait to hear all about it!
