First Day of School

Today is Evan's first day of school! All went quite smoothly and no tears were shed (that I know of.)

I had to wake Evan up this morning. He was sleeping in and we needed to start getting ready for the day. After our 'good mornings' I told Evan he was going to school today! He perked up and said, "June School?!" He was still pretty groggy at first, but started getting really excited as we ate breakfast and got ready. He would ask me questions like, "Does school have soccer?" "Does school have Thomas (the Train)?" "Does school have milk?" "Does school have water?" "What kind of water?!"

We've toured the campus a couple times and I've been preparing Evan as much as I could. We drove up to school and the staff kept us in the car. The head teacher unbuckled Evan and held his hand as they walked into class. We signed him in and were off. Just like that! It was so fast, so painless, so nice! I'm sure it would have been rougher if Evan showed some resistance, but he was fine. We shall see how it goes. I'm waiting for my password to gain online access to the classroom webcam. That should be interesting!!

Here's Evan getting dressed with Pops. He insisted on wearing this outfit.



Here's Evan 'leading' his teacher to class. This boy is ready to go!
