First day of Kindergarten

(I'm doing 2 posts in one day, so be sure to check out the one below here, too!)

Our little guy had his first day of kindergarten and it went well: much more smoothly than his First Day of Preschool, where he was on the verge of tears when Zack left. This time around, I took him and he did great. There are 2 kids from his preschool class, plus his new friend Samuel, and lots of new friends whose names he can't remember :)

Look how much he's grown...

First Day of Pre-K (Jan 3, 2008)









First Day of Kindergarten (Sep 2, 2008)









Here are some other pics fromthe morning...











Posing with his back pack (or as he calls it, his pack bag)










Samuel & William, getting ready to hit the halls together!











With his teacher, Miss Mary

And we had a VERY sad terrier this morning. I got back to the car after taking William to his classroom, and Adie was not happy that I was alone. She refused to sit in the front with me, and finally curled up in his carseat. At home, she moped around, and sat at the doorway to his room with her ears down.









But then she was so excited when we picked him up!

He has grown so much! It's amazing when you look at the two pictures of him sitting at the table!

So glad his first day went well. Leeza and I are waiting for Sarah to get home (in about a half hour). Leeza was missing her buddy today. Hopefully once she starts preschool next week, it will be better.

How wonderful! I taught kindergarten for so long and loved seeing all my kids come in on the first day with new clothes and pack bags:). He looks so happy and totally ready. Please tell Ms. Mary I said hello- we were friends when we went to FBCD. Hope Adie is feeling better today.

William has grown so much - he looks like a little man now!! Congratulations on your first day of school! I love the photo of Adie moping in the car seat.
