Kinder Good Start

On Friday, we had "Kinder Good Start" day at Robbie's school.  The kindergarteners and their parents go for a half day to meet their teacher, get to know their classroom, do some activities, and visit the lunch room (since it's a full day program).  Robbie was super excited!

I got to go with him, while Brian stayed with Lydi.

Robbie was so funny.  While the principal and teachers met with the parents, they had the kids go to the playground with the class aides.  Some kids wouldn't leave their parents, others had their parents walk them to the playground.  Robbie just stood up and started to walk out.  I had to call his name for him to turn and say goodbye...he was SO ready to start this kindergarten thing!

At the end of the day, he asked me if he could come back the next day.  He really loved it there!  I'm so glad.  It makes it a little easier for me to let him go.  I think he really might be ready.
