On The First Day of Kindergarten

Daddy and I gave K a special present today.

 

 

 

Granted he is five, and was disappointed that it wasn't a tablet.

 

We read it tonight, the night before his first day of Kindergarten.

 

We love you honey, and hope you have an amazing first day of Kindergarten

tomorrow.

 

 

 

 

Movie Night

We decided to go to the movies last night. It's been a few months since we've been. K picked the movie. He chose, The Secret Life of Pets. It was very cute.

 

Fun night.

 

Sneak - A - Peek for Kindergarten

I took the day off of work yesterday to take K to his Kindergarten Sneak - A - Peek. His school does a sneak a peek so the student can go meet his/her teacher, and see where his/her classroom is before the first day of school.

K walked in and found his name on his cubby. He found a folder with his name on it, which had Mama's parking pass in it and forms that Mama needs to complete before the first day of school. It also had 2 lists that included the supplies he will need for class, and a list of items we can donate that the class will need for the school year.

His teacher was excited to meet him, she allowed him to pick out a colored lei. Then she wrote his name on the white board under the color that he selected. He picked a green lei. So, he will be in the green group doing school projects.

After leaving her classroom, we checked out the rest of the campus. We found the bathrooms. There are 2 playgrounds ! K even ran into a couple of his buddies from preschool :)

 

I can't believe he starts Kindergarten next week!!!!

My heart can't take it!!! Awe.....

 

Several items checked off the supply list.

Still missing medium size paper clips and head phones.

 

 

 



Parent Orientation at the New School

Today I went to K's Parent Orientation at his new school. I was very happy with everything I heard. They had all of the Kindergarten teachers present, so you could meet all of them.
The parents filled the multi purpose room, and listen to the teachers explain  the schedules, rules, and processes that the school follows. The teachers seemed very up beat, positive, excited, and encouraging. They answered our questions. I got to see K's Kindergarten teacher. I'm so excited for him! I started tearing up when they started explaining how they expect the first day to go. They asked us not to cry if we could help it. Lol, I know they are thinking about the child's best interest and feelings....but are you kidding me! I know that they are right, but if I can make it through his first day with out crying I will be shocked! I left the orientation excited about K starting his education. I'm happy with this school and I'm so glad that we made the choice to move here, so he could attend this school. I walked out of the orientation feeling excited, happy, and confident that my little man is going to get the education he deserves! It felt GREAT!!

Jug or Chug

Last night K and I were sitting in my bed watching  TV when he said:

K : Look Mom! I can Jug!
Me: ( Look over at K drinking his orange juice quickly) You can Jug?
K: Yeah, Jug,Jug, Jug.....
Me: Lol,  Do you mean Chug chug chug....like you are drinking a lot of fluid fast?
K: Yeah Mom, watch me jug ( as he drinks his juice quickly again).
Me: Try saying chug.
K: CHUGGGG
Me: There you go.

The next day:
K : Look Mom, watch me jug!
Me: Lol, it's chug! Watch me CHUG!
K: No Mom, watch me JUG!
Me: Lol

Mom, you have to ask God.

Tonight I was helping K dry off after getting out of the shower when I thought....pretty soon he is not going to need my help getting out of the shower. Every night after his shower, I put the towel around him, dry his hair so the water doesn't run into his eyes, and pull him close to hug him and tell him how much I love him. Tonight, I told him he was growing too fast and asked him not to grow anymore.....

He told me I need to ask God because that wasn't up to him.

My love, God answered me when he gave me you.

What does your mom do for work?

This morning while I was driving K to school :


K: Yesterday my teacher asked me if you are a teacher.
Me: She did, did you tell her no?
K: Yep, then she asked me what you do for work.
Me: Oh yeah, what did you tell her?
K: I told her you buy apps to put on my phone.
Me: Lol, your teacher thinks I buy apps all day?
K: Yep.
Me: Okay, lol!
