Kindergarten Day!

My "big" girl thoroughly enjoyed an afternoon of kindergarten today. Her middle sister cried most of the way home because she wanted to go too. And her Mommy wanted so badly to turn around and sit in the classroom so she could see her interact with the other kids and make sure she was included and having a good time.

But she was all smiles when she was done and even remembered names of girls she had just met. She told me all about getting pushed on a swing by a grade one girl and going "SO HIGH", sharing her snack with her cousin, hearing a Bible story, learning a new song, and playing with all the girls in the class. When we came home she wanted to get right to work on her "homework" - a little workbook about the letter "L". So I guess she's ready and hopefully by September her sister and I will be too.
