The night before the first day of school, Zach was giddy with excitement. We had been telling him for weeks that he needed to be well rested for school. I did't get an argument from him when I told him it was bedtime earlier than usual.
Here he is in the morning with the clothes he wanted to wear on his first day. I forgot to take pictures of his shoes, I will put those up soon. These shoes make him really fast.
When we picked out the bag, I didn't realize it was so big. There was some worry whether it would fit into his cubby at school, but it fit without a problem.
Once we got to school, Zach was as cool as a cucumber. I won't call him shy because he did speak when spoken too, but he was quite and reserved. There were several children sobbing because there parents were leaving them, and a couple of those children were in full on melt down mode.
I am guessing the first day was fairly uneventful. He didn't have much to say about it, and told grandma he didn't learn anything on his first day.
Before I left, I did notice the girl next to him had very nice handwriting, and I noticed that Zach noticed this too. If I know Zach, I would expect to see his name written well on your next birthday or Christmas card.
