It's official......
Finn's a Kindergartner,
heading off to school 7:30am
Finn and his Daddy
Can this really be happening?
I let Finn pick out his own outfit,
he wanted Shawn White from Target.
Welcome Back Students 2011-2012
Todd and Finn heading to the classroom line-up. Violet said she did this before with Todd....but alas, 40 years ago!!!
I love the RETRO vibe of Finn's school, it reminds Todd and I of our own elementary school's. It's hard not to feel the nostalgia embracing you from every hallway and classroom......who walked these halls before? Where are they now?
Three On A Tree
Finn - Mommy - Daddy
You can only imagine how excited Finn was when he found out the school mascot was a LION.
We Are Magnolia!
My son is blessed, not only did he have his parents escorting him first day....his grandparents walked the halls with him too! WE ARE THE GUSTAFSONS, we travel in packs.
We were beyond happy when we found out Youshia, Finn's BFF from Montessori was in the same class! Finn's greatest fear of Kindergarten was not knowing anyone, so this immediately dissipated his fear........and mine.
Is that a Kindergartner?
He must have been held back a bunch!! I bet it was because he didn't wear tennis shoes, always showed up in flip flops, that's a big no no in elementary school.
Time to line up, Mrs. Cooper arrived to escort her students to their classroom. This is when my anxiety level reached an all time high.......deep breathing helped. I didn't want to cry in front of Finn...especially since he seemed to be handling it remarkably well!
My little one is on his way......
his formal education has begun.
