We have a Kindergartener!

Last night, we celebrated Brant starting school with back to school cookies, courtesy of the Cookie Mama! She made Brant & Brylee's teachers some cookies for the next day. At bedtime, we read The Night Before Kindergarten. My sweet friend, Erika, gave Brant this book! Thanks, Erika! It was a great book - both kids loved it!

The day had finally arrived, today was Brant's first day of kindergarten! He was so ready to get to school. When we got there, we took pictures and headed toward his class. He went right into Mrs. Robertson's class and starting playing with blocks.

I was super proud - I did not shed a tear. I was not sad because he was so excited and happy to be there. (Part of the real reason I didn't cry was that I had to get back to my class and I did not have time to think about it!) He had a SUPER day. He took a nap - which is very surprising, and he loved going to P.E. He was excited to have a green light. He can't wait to go tomorrow!
