Jonah's First Day of Kindergarten

Jonah had his first day of Kindergarten last week. He has been super excited, although I don't think he understood why school is now called Kindergarten. I guess I don't either. He is already adapting though, because he loves telling people that he is in Kindergarten.

I tried to take some pictures before we left on Thursday. But there was a mantis on the side of the house and the kids wouldn't stop staring at it.
"Come on, Jonah, let's take a picture."
"Um, boys, look over here."
"Hello?"
*Waving arms and whistling*
"Jonah, show me your Star Wars folder."
Bingo.
Eden was going no where near that mantis. And here he is on the way in to school. Looks pretty happy.
I tried to ask Jonah about his day when he got home, but I couldn't get much out of him. He said that they colored and there is a boy named Rocky in his class. The next day, he was so excited to tell me about P.E. Earlier, I had explained to him what P.E. was. He told me that they kicked some balls and that the P.E. teacher kicked a ball and it hit him in the head and he cried. But his teacher gave him a hug, and he liked P.E. He was totally animated the whole time he was telling me this, even about the part where he got hit in the head! So funny.

I don't know about that PE teacher???? Kicking balls into kids' heads...

So glad he's adapting and loving Kindergarten. Boys never like to say what they did for the day, I can never get anything out of Aiden.

First day pictures never turn out when you want them to. A couple of years ago, Tibi ended up so mad by the time we had to leave for Seminary their first day, that her and Landon looked like convicts. That first picture will someday be funny hopefully!
Too funny that they would NOT look at you.

Hilarious when trying to take a picture!! So glad that his school life is off to a good start. We will also be facing the first day of kindergarten in a couple of weeks!

That is awesome that Jonah is in Kindergarten! Jade started at the end of August as well. It is nice having both my girls in school all day! I miss them during the day. It is nice to have a break though! And Nick stated preschool too. He goes two days a week for 2 hours! It is weird to only have one kid during that time! They are growing up fast! Hopefully I will post a kid update on my blog soon! Ü
