Hallelujah!

The first week of kindergarten is over! I have three glorious days of rest ahead of me, and alot of chaos behind me. Some highlights of this week include:

  • child yelling the "f-word" in class
  • child crying all day because classmate doesn't know how to spell said child's name
  • child who hasn't spoken a single word (except for the letter X) all week
  • child who can't even write the first letter of her name
  • children who apparently have no internal workings of their ears
  • decorating my house in preparation for arrival of in-laws
  • a parent hitting my car with theirs
  • beginnings of a sweet illness...possibly head cold or strep (and i'm singing at church on Sunday!)

But seriously,

  • only sixteen students!
  • no students ran away
  • sweet five year-old hugs
  • a little girl who thinks the hospital can give you a new hand if you don't have one
  • seeing my sweet baby P from last year (the sweetest child EVER!)
  • a decorated house
  • arrival of the in-laws

One week down, 35 to go!

No way! Someone hit your car? That's crazy! I'm glad you made it through the week. I hope you have a great long weekend!
