Welcome to Kindergarten!







Peyton started her first day of Kindergarten this week. She only goes to school two times this week and then starts on Monday with the entire class. She was really excited the night before - I baked a "back to school cake" for the family and we read a Kindergarten book before we went to bed. In the morning, she was excited to get dressed in her uniform and insisted that my mom do her hair. The entire family took her to school that morning, and her teacher was waiting for us at the front door. She came home that afternoon and reported that she liked her teacher and was excited for school, especially to learn how to read. On her "first day of Kindergarten" coloring sheet that she brought home, she was asked to give her teacher a sentence about she felt on the first day - Peyton reported that felt "a little shy." Of course, Emily wanted to be just like big sister, so she had to bring a backpack to school and she cried, wanting to wear a uniform to school, just like her sister.
