I dont like kindergarten...

For the first time, all of the kids got ready for their first day of school at the same school!  Jason has been waiting for years to go to Clay with Kara and Ben... so today was a very big day.

I'm glad to report there were no tears... I am very proud, for I managed to hold it together as our baby started kindergarten!  In the last week or so, Jason has been consoling me saying things like, "don't worry, Mom.  I'll still come home."  He told me that he worried about me because he doesn't want me to be sad when he's at school.  And while driving home from our vacation, Jason patted my shoulder from the backseat and said, "it's gonna be okay."


Our tradition has been to take a photo at the school mailbox and soon they'll all be towering over that little mailbox... I know it.


When I asked Jason how kindergarten was, he said, "I don't like kindergarten... I LOVE it!"  We know that is because of Mrs. Harrell.  We also know that Jason will have a great year because she is the best.  We are so grateful.


Though the older kids said they were not ready or excited to go back, they were all smiles to see their friends this morning.




I know it's gonna be better than okay... these kids are going to have a great year.
