I am the Mother of a Kindergartener

I am also the mother of a preschooler and a baby, but this week it's all about Kindergarten.

On her first day of school I paid extra special attention to making sure that her hair accessories coordinated with her dress.

That her outfit matched her backpack. Don't worry, I adjusted the straps!

That the lunchbox matched the backpack.



Both are a butterfly theme, perfect for my butterfly birthday girl.

Then I dug out my chalkboard writing slate from months ago, wrote a quick "K" on it, and made her pose for pictures.

I even put on earrings so I could look cute in the photos too.

Then it was off to school, where she took to it like a fish to water, loving her locker-like cubby, her Name Necklace, having an assigned spot in circle, even the super-duper-high monkey bars on the playground.

Now I just have to remember to pick her up at 3:30 everyday, not a time that I'm used to be out and about, it's more my preheat-the-oven-wake-the-baby-prep-dinner-sneak-in-a-book-with-the-preschooler time.

Any advice for a new Kindergarten mom?
