Maggie, Luke, and I were very excited to wait for Adam’s bus this afternoon.

He had a great time and is bummed that he doesn’t get to go back until Friday (they stagger when the kindergarten kids start). Adam said they read three books, played with play doh, colored pictures, and spent some time on the playground.  He said his favorite part of the day was “looking for the shoes” in one of the books they read.

He said his whole class and his teacher were looking for him after lunchtime. Apparently, he finished his lunch and decided to go back to the room on his own. Crazy kid.

The little kids and I had a special surprise waiting for Adam when he got home. He was pretty pleased with his cookie cake.

Today is Adam’s first day of school – ever. He was ready to go (or maybe just ready to get away from mommy and her camera).

“I think I hear the bus!”

They had parents come in from 8:15-8:45. So Dave went and took a bunch of pictures for me. I wanted to go, but Adam requested Daddy, because I got to take him to his orientation, and “it’s only fair”. It’s probably a good thing, because they might still be trying to kick me out of the classroom if I went.

The kids had to draw a first day of school picture of themselves. Adam drew himself holding an apple, after this photo he added a hot dog to his other hand.

I asked Dave to get a picture with Adam’s teacher too, and am so glad he was able to get this one for me.

I just know Adam is going to have a great time and I am so excited for him and all the adventures he will have. I’m still counting down the minutes until the bus brings him back home at 2:30 though. PS – Dad, did you see we got a new gate?
