Kindergarten

So Kaley girl started Kindergarten yesterday. She was very excited. Last week we went and met her teacher and found out that 4 out of the 5 kids she knew going into Kinder were in her class. Even the little boy next door who she stalks. I've heard her teacher is very nice and the kids like her but a little disorganized. haha That's Kindergarten Mommy talk.

At Kinder Camp they were given a homework assignment to turn in on Monday. They had to make a cutout of themselves with things that describe them. This is Kaley's project. She is wearing a swimsuit, fishing in one hand and holding a picture of her and her sister in the other. Flo and I wanted to put a fajita in her hand, but she wanted a picture of her Sis. She also decorated her feet to look like her new sparkly Sketchers.

This is Kaley on her first day. I am so lucky that she doesn't care what she wears or how her hair is fixed. I still get to doll her up. However, she was very insistent on what shoes she wore. She really wanted the new Twinkle Toes Sketchers for the new school year. They are bright colored and covered in peace signs, bling and glitter. Plus they light up. She's crazy about them. The good thing about having our little neighbor boy in her class is that he can spy on her. I made sure to tell him to let me know if the shoes become a problem in class. He promised he would tell me. As my mom used to always say, "I have spies everywhere."

Kaley was very good when we got to school. She went right in, found her cubby and her seat and began her assignment. As I left her class and passed several crying Mommies I began praising God and singing Hallelujah. It was a nice and peaceful first day of school. I'm very proud of my Boo. She loved school and was very excited to go back.
