Daniel's First Day of Kindergarten

Daniel's first day of Kindergarten was a success! He was so excited from beginning to end. When the bus arrived in the morning, he ran straight inside without barely looking back. It all happened so quickly and he was so confident I was kind of shocked (but also happy, relieved, and of course a little emotional)! :) When he arrived home in the afternoon, he barely acknowledged my presence and went running with his friend to our houses. When I finally caught up with him, he said: "Mamae, I loved it! And I love my teacher Ms. Graham!" It was so spontaneous and heartfelt! Praise God, it couldn't have gone better. The photos that follow document everything we witnessed today!

 

Photos taken in the morning before going to school

 

Daniel loves taking "silly photos" and asked me to be silly with him.

This friend takes the same bus and is in Daniel's class too.

When the bus arrived, he quickly grabbed his friend and suddenly disappeared inside the bus without looking back!

 

Arrival at school!

Jonny and I managed to get to the school as the bus arrived and got this photo of Daniel looking outside the window.

He came out all happy and excited!

Jonny was there to capture the arrival on video too!

They all lined up and went inside.I was relieved to see the efficiency of the system.

We got to go inside too and saw Daniel meet his teacher, Ms. Graham, inside the cafeteria. She gave him a name tag.

We left him sitting in the cafeteria hearing the day's announcements. They later went to his classroom...

He was happy coming home and gave me a quick wave!

As soon as he got off, he ran after his friend straight to our houses!
