Yesterday was the first day of school. This year we have two in kindergarten. Since they have August birthdays, they will each be doing two years of kindergarten, one private and one public. Of course as luck would have it Julia goes mornings and Nicholas goes afternoons. Figures!
Julia is now at Little Blessings five days a week. She only has nine kids in the class this year, only three are girls. I'm a little disappointed in the boy/girl ratio but maybe there will be less fighting. (We all know how little girls can be.) But you cannot beat the small class with two teachers. She told me she can't wait to get homework!
Now compare that to Nicholas. Yesterday, when he got off the school bus he said, "I love the bus! But I don't like school". Ahhhh...my boy. He would much rather be fixing or building things with his tools or riding his bike or watching his favorite cartoons. We'll have to work extra hard to get him through school. His class size isn't too bad for public school with 17 kids.
They both had great days and weren't the least bit nervous. On the other hand, there was me, Miss Nervous Nelly, awake at 1:00 a.m. worrying for them.
