Cian's 1st day of School

This one has been a long time running too.
Cian's first day of school.
It was WAY harder for me then it was for him!!!!
He did a great job....not one single tear...THANK GOD!!!
I prayed he wouldn't cry, I knew I wouldn't be able to keep from crying myself if he started.
He was very excited to start this new adventure, & was quite ready for it.
We had gone to the school to meet his teacher the night before, so he at least had an idea of what he was in for, or at least who he was in for.
His teacher is Mrs. King.  She has
 been a teacher for 8 years, & a very sweet, patient person.
The IDEAL Kindergarten teacher!!!
I think this year will be a really good one for him.
This is one of the murals painted on the wall by the office.
The first day begins...
He actually woke up with a smile on his face, & wandered into the bathroom to start getting ready with Daddy.  I could tell he was feeling like a big boy...SO CUTE!!!
I kept telling myself NOT to cry!!!  Watching him get ready for his first day of school, really made me realize how big he is, & how fast time really does go by!!!
People say it all the time, but no matter how hard you try to enjoy every single moment you possibly can, it still FLIES BY!!!  When faced with the reality of just how fast it goes, really can bring you down.
I remember giving birth to him, like it was yesterday, & here we are, over 5 years later!!!
The best part was watching the excitement build for him.
That slap happy excitement...yes, he was that excited!!!
So willing to learn the new routine, & SO ready to go!!!
Again...before I knew it, he was all ready to go & it was time to bring him to school!!!
:(
Off for his very first day of school...He is so dang CUTE!!!
The pep talk from Dad.
The squeezes from Mom.
I had to put both of these up...I love that they are both so concerned about each other, unless of course they are too busy making each other mad about something...LOL
Cian eyeballing Shaylinn...
Shaylinn eyeballing Cian....LOL
Then it was Moms turn....see, he was totally fine!!!
YES, my eyes are just a little puffy...LOL
His first day of school off to a good start!!!
Getting a little anxious for the day to begin.
OK...very anxious!!!
Learning where everything goes....
Backpacks & Nap mats
His seat.
I could tell that he was starting to get a little nervous by this point, so I knew it was time to go.  Although I admit....I DID NOT WANT TO!!!!
One last hug from Shaylinn...
When I picked him up from school, I could tell that although overwhelming, he had a really good day.  I really think this is going to be a really good year.
Although exhausted, he still had a smile on his face, & was quite proud of his "King" hat.
He had a GREAT first day of school.
I am SO PROUD of you Cian!!!!
I LOVE YOU BUDDY!!!
XOXOXO
Trying to get any information from him about what he did throughout the day, was like trying to find a needle in a haystack....it was driving me crazy, you know the one word answers, no matter how hard I tried, he did NOT want share anything about his day.
That is until he had changed out of his school clothes, & was going to the bathroom that he offered anything....LOL
First he told me that he "didn't" FART (yes that is what he told me) in school.  LOL...I told him I was happy for him, & that it was probably a good thing with the way he smells....LOL
Then he told me that he did, "a few little ones...Mommy....but they didn't stink"
LMAO...UMMM...Is this a boy thing...who thinks about when they fart throughout the day???
Of course I asked him if anyone heard him, or smelled him...LOL...he assured me that no one had..."No Mommy, I told you, IT DIDN'T STINK!!!!!"
Then I got nervous that he had tried to hold them in...but he told me that he hadn't.
Of all the things that went on during his first day of school, that is THE ONLY thing that he offered to tell me about....
OH THE MEMORIES....LOL!!!!!
These are a few from the first few days of school....
His favorites...
Of course I was trying to embarrassing him....trying to.
Yelling out the window that "I love you Buddy"....He is such a trooper!!!
He thinks I'm crazy...LOL
Like I said....he is really enjoying school!!!
LOL...
LOL....Just not my camera....
Apparently, he had ENOUGH....LOL
...I gave up after that shot...hehehe
Much Love, Many Blessings, & TONS of Laughs,
;) Shannon
XOXOXO
