1 (day) down . . . 179 to go.

Well, the much anticipated first day of school has finally arrived.

I must say, I'm most pleased! It seems I have a really great bunch of kids this year! And to top it off, 20% less! (. . . today, that is.)

As with every year, today was a fun filled day of overly animated conversations (and practice) of rules and procedures. This, of course, is quite possibly one of the hardest things for a kindergartner to endure . . . sitting and listening.

But, that's simply how it goes. And although it's so very tough (sometimes even for the teacher), it couldn't have been too terribly bad . . . I did end up with one, "I love you." And you can't help but feel pretty good about that.

That is so sweet that a little child told you they loved you!!! I hope that Alex and Cate have a teacher just like you some day. (Of course, Alex thinks you will be his teacher...and I keep having to explain that you are not the only kindergarten teacher.) :-)
