Eilers 6: 1st day of Kindergarten!

Ezra had his first day of Kindergarten, today! He was so excited to go this morning that he was up, dressed and downstairs by 7! All on his own! He is such a morning person, which will help. We are doing a co-op school where he will go to school Tuesdays and Thursdays from 830-330. (at 230, they dismiss from school and you have the option of signing them up for PE. Our little man, LOVES anythings SPORTS, so we thought he would enjoy PE). Then, Monday/Wednesday/Friday I will home school Ezra with the weekly curriculum agenda, sent by the teacher. I am really excited about what this year holds for us. I can't wait to be hands on with his learning. I am excited to see what type of learning style he has and how well we work together as a team. It will be tough in the beginning, figuring out our schedule/routine and sticking to it, but will be really good once we get it down. I am excited! More importantly, Ezra is SO EXCITED. I just can't believe I have a child who is old enough for KINDERGARTEN.

Today was a good day. I was teary throughout the day, but did the only thing I knew would bring me peace, and that was PRAY. He had a great day. He loved it. He came home talking about it and even answered all the questions I had about it! That is HUGE! (at one point, I think I had asked my limit of questions. He said, "Mom, I can't remember all of it now. Dad asked me too many questions when he picked me up." Ha!) His class consists of 7 boys and 1 girl! That is such a change for us. I have a handful of friends with children his age that are all GIRLS. So, I am excited that he will be getting a little BOY interaction. i just pray they are sweet boys who like to be nice and kind to others, of course!

Here are some pictures of the beginning of the day.
