First Day of School

We made it through the first day of school.
The morning went well. On the way there Noah let out a big sigh, so I asked if he was nervous. He said yes, he was nervous, scared, and excited because it was a new year with new things. I asked him not to say too much because I didn't want Kade to be scared or to cry. But our little clown started dancing around in his seat and acting silly and made Noah laugh which eased his anxieties.
We went to Noah's room first, he walked in and was greeted by a lot of smiling faces, and I saw the smile come on his face too. Then it was off to Kade's room, when we got there some of the kids were already playing, but he stuck close to me. We told Sister Ann good morning, I took a couple of pictures and then pointed out some of his friends, he did go and tell them hi, but came back to my side, I guess I should have left instead of talking to other parents. Sister did come and took his hand and they went to the play area - as I was walking out I heard him talking to his friends, so we made it without any tears, maybe a little misty (mine), but not tears.
Well the no tears didn't last. We got a note from Kade's teacher that he did cry that he missed his mom, but other than that he was fine. Angelette also told Granny that he cried, but another teacher who is a friend of our talked to him, and Angelette also talked to him, then Sister Ann gave him a hug and took him to play. This evening at bed time he cried too, but we calmed him down and he is now sound asleep.
Noah's day was good, he said they didn't do much, just unpacked went over expectations. He did start learning things in band which (I'm glad) he seemed interested in.
So at St Paul & St Ludmila's we have Kade in Kindergarten, Angelette in 3rd, Noah & Rina in 5th, Juliette in 6th, Nicolette in 8th and Katelynn in 9th, and at Nazareth Academy, Conner is in PreK.
