First Day of Kindergarten

I should have posted this earlier but Rachel started kindergarten on Monday (yes our district has year-round schooling) and it was quite overwhelming for us. Rachel handled it like a pro, as she always does, and loves every minute of school - even riding the school bus!

Here are some photos:

lined up with her classmates;



waiving goodbye as they begin their march to class;



and finally leaving the classroom at the end of the first day!



So far they have read a number of stories and have sung a number of songs. Some of which were so silly, according to Rachel, that she didn't want to tell us about them! After a few minutes of intense interrogation, waterboarding excluded, she broke and sang these silly songs for us, they were quite cute.

All in all she loves school, which is great for us.
