First Day Funk

Another first has come and gone - Nico's first day at school!

All dressed in his (oversized) uniform and ready to go, he puts on his brand new Zebra backpack and trooped to the bathroom to check himself out!

Off to...

check myself out!

On the way to school, there was not a smidge of anxiety in him. It was a good idea to send him to summer camp to get him used to the idea of a new school, having transitioned from once-twice a week play school.

Made it to school just in time, with about 2 minutes to spare. Put on his backpack and grabbed his matching zebra lunch box (which he named Zebarie) and walked into the school. Upon entering the campus, he very personably asked the first teacher he saw -- "Hi! What's your name?" and the teacher answered "Teacher Trixie".  Teacher Trixie brought him to his classroom, Younger Preschool 107. It was a newly renovated classroom - nice and spacious, a ready venue for lots of fun learning!

He was so excited to get into his classroom that he just walked in without saying good bye to me! I had to call him back to say good bye before he walked into the room to join his classmates already singing in a circle to begin the day's session.

And so goes the beginning of the rest of the next 17 years! Somebody is growing up way too fast!

Ready to go home and nap after class.
Had a great first day of school!
