Kindergarten at Silver Lake Elementary

Luke's first day of Kindergarten was Tuesday, August 25th.

On the first day of school, I arrived at Luke's school to pick him up and Luke was in line to get on the bus! (I didn't know, unless you send a note, your child is automatically put on the bus). I got him out of line to take him home and he whispered to me "mom, I really wanted to ride on the bus". Luke loves loves loves riding the bus!!

Always picture ready!

This was taken through the window just minutes before the principal kindly asked me not to linger at the window ;)



Luke could not have had a better first week of school. He absolutely loves Kindergarten! His teacher, Mrs. Watson, graduated from Hoban with one of my cousins (go figure) and she is super warm and friendly.

So the first week of school, Luke is rushing inside each day and telling me that he has to finish his homework. I thought this was strange because his teacher said that he wouldn't have homework the first week. So I say, "Luke, I don't think you have homework". He says, "well Mrs. Watson says that if we don't finish our bell work then we can finish it at home". Turns out he was saving one little part of his bell work each day to do at home so that it could be his "homework".

Something funny and unrelated to Kindergarten: Sammy just ran up to me while I'm working on the blog and says, " Hey mom, this new cable box willy works....they have new star wars lego commercials!!!"
