'Twas the day before kindergarten

Today was mainly spent doing anything Matthew wanted. I told him that he was the boss for the day as long as he didn't abuse his powers! We played a lot of toys, watched TV and explored outside.

At one point, the boys were playing together and Matthew told Thomas that today was the last day he would be home during the day. Thomas got upset and said he wanted to go with Matthew. Of course, Matthew told him that he couldn't and Thomas began to cry.

"But Buddy, if you leave me, I will cry and cry!"

Very sweet. I think that he will eventually appreciate being top dog around the house.

Tonight, we packed Matthew's lunch, got his clothes laid out and read "The Night Before Kindergarten".

We are all going to bed early as our new schedule begins tomorrow!

Happy, Happy, Happy first day of Kindergarten, Matthew! I well remember how that first day is (it was all of a week ago! LOL)

He will do great! Gracie hasn't been all this week due to being sick, but I know she will enjoy getting back in there...and hopefully soon!

Two of my three are in school now and my little one was so sad on the walk home the first day. Now it is better for him as he gets our undivided attention.

Good luck with the first day!
