First day of kindergarten.
Mommy woke me up at 6:30am which gave me an hour to get ready. We had a rough time getting me to wear shorts.  I agreed to wear shorts last night but changed my mind.  Finally I agreed.
I was not agreeing to picture taking especially by Barbara. I did let mommy take my picture in secret holding my Kindergarten sign.

I was pleased that my dad came to watch me get on the bus.

Anna Kate was there, along with my great grandparents, Barbara, and Mommy.

Mommy took a picture of Alyssa's family for them.

GGF shook my hand before I happily climbed on the bus.
Anthony (4th grade), his sister Alyssa (Kindergarten) and Cole (first grade) were at my bus stop.  Jackson's mom took him to school this morning but he will be on the bus this afternoon.

My parents got in Daddy's truck and drove to the shopping center by the school.  Then they walked the short distance to the bus drop-off and watched me get off the bus.  A tag was put on my backpack showing where I was supposed to go.  They took me to my classroom.  Mrs Meredith met us at the door. 

 My supplies were on my desk.  Mommy pre-ordered them on-line.

She helped me put my backpack way and helped me find my desk.  My parents watched from the doorway.  They can't believe I am a Kindergartner.

Barbara and GGM watched AK at my home today.  AK is really working on learning to walk.  We watched her take 11 steps in a row all by herself.  And she did almost that many steps several times.

I colored this picture at school.  I didn't have any homework, but Mommy had lots of papers to fill out.

My bus was to drop me off in front of Mr Brad's home at 3:40pm, but it was 4:10pm before it arrived.  Mr Mark, GGF, AK, and Barbara all stood out in the 90+ temperature 100 percent humidity waiting.  They sure love me.

Jackson, Alyssa, me, and Anthony after school.

I went inside and called Mommy, Mimz, and Daddy returned my call so I could tell them about my day.  I didn't say much to any of them.

I sat next to Alyssa on the ride home.  She was going to come play at house but her dad said another day.  Let's get settled in to the new year for a day.  But later she did come over, along with her brother and Jackson (5th grade).  We played until almost 8pm.  As they were leaving, I hollered, "I will see you all on the bus tomorrow."   I took a quick shower, brushed my teeth, then ate three pieces of raisin toast before getting in bed.  I went to sleep pretty easily because I had a very full day.

My favorite part of the day was recess.  We played on the small playground.  For lunch I ate pizza, carrots with ranch dressing, strawberries, and chocolate milk.  I ate it all.

We said the Pledge of Allegiance.  We didn't sing any songs.  The teacher read to us and that was boring.   Mrs Meredith has a 10-month-old baby and two dogs (Bones and ____)  I like the children in my class.
