So today marks the beginning of Michael and I being the parents of school-aged children! Riley began kindergarten today. He is amazing! We have been preparing him all year for this and he has been so excited to begin his journey at "big school"! He was the first one to arrive at his class today and was eager to listen and be the helper for his teacher. His eyes lit up everytime I asked him if he was nervous, excited, or what ever. He is so ready for this. Riley is super smart and will be an extraordinary student. He called me at precisely 2:45 when his daddy picked him up from school. He told me all about art class, lunch and how hard it was to open his milk carton. During dinner, he informed me that one boy rolled on the floor and was being naughty and therefore had to go to time out, but that he "will not" do that. I did not cry when I left him, but just hearing about the adventures he had at school without me, made me a little sad and of course happy that he is getting to experience some really cool stuff! I can only hope that he stays as excited as he is now about school for as long as he has to attend.
