You would think......

This is how Jaemon feels about his first day of Kindergarten! (this was the "question of the day" that they answered when they first came into class.)
This is how I feel about his first day of Kindergarten...you'd think that after 5 kids starting, I'd be an old pro!!!

He thinks he's such a big boy!!!


REALLY? Cuz they seem like awfully small little acorns today!!!

All set and ready!
"Bye Mommy....I love you!"
You would think I'd be able to handle this day without a lot of emotional turmoil. You'd think I could walk away and smile, knowing that he will be just fine! You'd think I would be excited for this, the beginning of such a new frontier for my littlest boy. You'd think I'd be happy to have a little time to myself! You would think I wouldn't cry my eyes out when I watched him wave goodbye on his very first day of Kindergarten.
You would think.
But I still did.
Love you too buddy....you will LOVE it!!

Well you would think so....but it's because it's HIS first time going and whether we have 1 or 101 children, we love them all the same and their first experiences are all still tender. Very cute post. You will get used to it and you're right, he will love it.

You and me both...it really doesn't get any easier because now we know how fast we're going to be sending them to Jr. High and so forth. :( Good thing for Kleenexes! I'm glad he and Abbie are in the same class and will be bus buddies!

oooh, there's nothing quite like the first day of Kindergarten! I always cry -- but then it is always so great too! (can't believe Jaemon is that old!)

There's nothing like a good cry! I had mine today. But just wait until two years from now when our last ones go... I can't even think about it.
