Austin's First Day of Kindergarten

What a big day! Austin's first day in Kindergarten. He has been talking about it all summer. He was so excited. He got his school supplies and backpack two weeks ago, and has been showing it off to anyone who came near him! He has been talking about how "I'm 5 now and I know how it works". Such a smart kid! His first day went really well today, and I didn't cry a bit. There were plenty of other moms crying as they were leaving school, but I think both Austin and I were so excited for this next phase of his life that we didn't even think to cry over it. He had all the confidence in the world going into school, and hardly had time to say good-bye. James got off early so we could all pick him up together, and then we headed out to Chuck E Cheese to celebrate the big day. Such fun!
