It's been several months since I sent my boy off to Kindergarten with darth vader lunchbox in hand...and a little nervousness in my heart.
Would he be ready?
Would people be nice to him?
Would anyone sit with him at the lunch table?
It was a great year. A few 'bumps' along the way.
Last week was his open house where we got to see where all the magic takes place. His teacher, young & artistic, really surprised me with her innovative methods & use of everyday objects as learning tools.
We took a tour of the first grade class rooms. I watched Jude's little face as he saw how much bigger the desks were and how there was less play space and more learning space. I think I heard him gulp when he entered the room and shook hands with a few of the teachers. I just wanted to go through it for him...but I know i can't.
There will never be another year like Kindergarten....I just can't believe there are only 8 days left....
