Once again the day started rough. We talked about it all weekend but the actual leaving was tough. I walked outside to yet another mom telling me her little girl did it too. Another mom came running to my car as I sat sobbing to tell me he had already stopped crying. And that this Kindy is lovely and she drives across town to send her kid here.
I went straight to a coaching session with a client so it was good that I had something to occupy my time. Sam and I both picked him up. They said he did good but did have a few tears but the teachers stayed with him. He was pretty reserved but did love showing us what he did today.
He needs this and while I sat crying I know that in order for him to do well when he actually goes to school he needs these years to build confidence. Strategic thinking is what makes me know this is good. Plus he is a BRAVE and COURAGEOUS kid!
First day of Kindy breakfast. Dinosaur & Butterfly eggs.

Here we go.

Sobbing in the car.
We made it! Now cupcakes with Kiera.
They approve.
A little after Kindy date. Toffee Nut Frappacino style.
All in all it was a good first day. He's going to love it and love the feeling of conquering a very hard thing. It's in his DNA!
