On April 1st, I went to enroll Hailey in Kindergarten at our neighborhood school.  The school is not too far from our home. As we were driving there she said, "I don't think I am going to like my first day of Kindergarten...unless they have lot's of free time!" It went well. I filled out lots of forms, handed them my required paperwork and we left. I did skip the form that was optional where you could tell the teacher about your child. I will leave this opinion to be formed by her teacher over time! This is just a sneaky way for the teacher and staff to place children. If that was the case, I would have had the cream of the crop when I taught Kindergarten.  No 26 wild Kindergarteners with disabilities for me ... or would I have? Someone has to love them! We only got to see the front office and waiting area. It is a new school so from the tiny bit we saw it was clean and smelled good! There is an orientation day in August where we will get to meet her teacher. I think she is ready for this next stage now. I am excited in lots of ways but hesitant in many more. I am excited for her to learn much more and experience new things but I dread what she will learn from classmates. I know first hand how easily things get picked up. Children seem to be exposed to things at a much younger age these days. I know a lot of it comes from having older siblings. The mature singing, dancing and clothing attire of a lot of children shock me. I can only hope she takes it all in stride and she has a great learning experience.
