First Day of Kindergarten!

I can't believe Caleb is already in kindergarten. It is amazing how fast time flies by. I was thrilled that I was able to go with Caleb to meet the teacher and drop off his supplies. It is hard being a teacher and missing the first day of school each year for my own kids. Caleb was so excited to find his spot at his table.
He then spent sometime checking out the classroom. His favorite spot was the grocery corner. He was never the shopper, always the cashier. Caleb did a great job sharing with the other children.
A few days later, it was the first day of school. Here is Caleb with his backpack ready to go to Michelle's house. He loved packing his lunch. With Caleb's allergies, his lunch feels like a bunch of healthy snacks. There is no main part like a sandwich. This is his normal lunch at home too, but when I put it in his lunch box and am truly able to say, you can take any one thing out for snack, it hits home that he has very limited things that he can eat.
The great news is that Caleb made it through his first day of school with smiles! After the second day, I even received a positive email from his teacher saying that he is observant and eager to learn. His favorite part of the day is recess, which he has been having two a day. He was cute last night, when I asked him if he had listening position. He thought that it was amazing that I knew about it!
After school, Caleb gets to go back to Michelle's house and play with Kendall and his best friend Christopher. Michelle took this cute photo of them with her phone. It is a little fuzzy, but too sweet to not post!
