Calleigh goes to Kindergarten

So the Summer has come to an End and Our little Lady is now a Kindergartner! :) We had her Open House last Thursday night and it was a Huge Success, However. We had Paperwork like CRAZY... I didn't know they needed so much from you! HA! I think the Teacher Even cracked a joke saying :



" When we are done, You can all line up and give Blood" haha..



Calleigh seemed so excited and ready to start this past Monday!

So Monday arrives, We wake up Early, Camp runs to Calleigh's room and Taps her on her shoulder and then says



"tally, (calleigh) wake up"



So sweet. He loves waking her up!

Once she was all dressed, she ran to the Bathroom and fixed her Hair , 'after I had fixed it once' b/c I guess i did not do it for her the way she liked.

We headed out the Door and got to School! We hopped out of the Car and started walking towards the Door, She was so anxious. Once inside we were directed to the Gym. Once to the Gym we were all Called to Go to Mrs. Peggy's Classroom. ( Her teacher ) side note: We were so excited to get Mrs. Peggy for Calleigh's Teacher this year, Calleigh was thrilled and her Classmates are Awesome! I'm very pleased with who she has been placed with and her Class. I just hope they all Get along. haha.

After making it to her room she was at home it seemed. She put her Bag on her Chair and just sat at her Table Patiently Waiting on what the Teacher said to do! I was so Proud of her. I didn't even Shed a Tear. Crazy I know. but let me get to Day 2. haha.. first let me explain what I had to fix.

Corey supposedly thought the Teacher said at Open House that she had Mats for all of the Kids, Well, when we got to School Monday, Calleigh's Mom was the only one NOT carrying a KinderMat :( after asking around, the other mom's said we were supposed to buy one! So I got to make a FAST run to Wal-Mart, 35 mins away and got a KinderMat for my Girl! She slept much better then on the floor I guess! Corey got a good laugh out of it!

After school, Corey & I took Camp and went to pick our little lady up! She hopped in the Car and began to SPILL about all the Kindergarten Details. It was pretty funny. She told us that she made Friends, and that the Teacher told them they are now to talk like Adults and Not Babies!



"HUMMMM," Went through my head and Corey & I giggled. We Like this Teacher. haha. Keep in mind. We have been back and forth about Calleigh to stop the baby talk! Ever since her 1st Cousin was born she keeps the Baby Talk thing up. well that's been 2 1/2 Years ago. So Yes. We are glad to hear the Teacher is pushing no Baby Talk as well! :)



Calleigh also told us that she did Math, She said:



"Oh Mom, That stuff is so hard, Trust Me, You don't Ever want to do stuff like that"



Corey & I just laughed so hard! Later in the Day she Told us that she learned to Email her Friends. hahaha. Seriously??? What are they teaching these kids? Ha. Well Honestly I don't really think they learned that, But What 5 year old comes up with that? We just have to laugh at her stories!

So All in All, Day 1 was Awesome. She was so Ready for Day 2!

Day 2:

So now it's the End of Day 2 and I'm sitting here typing this out b/c I have not blogged in forever and i have to get back in the habit! Calleigh went to Day 2 of Kindergarten and LOVED it again! However on this Day, I teared up! Yes I know I didn't On her first day, But something about her wanting me by her side then made me feel like I was still needed! Today, I went to Eat Breakfast with her. After watching her walk through the line and get her things, She ate her 'Tootie Fruities' and then the Bell Rang. Once I got her to the Hallway to her room, She Ran off and said



"Bye Mom, Love You"



I guess she thought she didn't need me anymore! :( I was a little sad, But so glad she felt at home enough to go and not Cry! :)

She's come a Long way since being pretty shy with things like that!

Once I picked her up, She SPILLED again! I look forward to hearing her talk at the end of the day!

I honestly think im just as excited as she is when she gets home b/c I get to look in her Yellow Folder and check her Behavior Sheet to see what Color she got! GREEN means she was on her Best Behavior All Day. So Far 2 Green Dots have been Given. I find myself saying



"Oh Calleigh, Let's check your folder and see what you got today"



When I saw she got her Second Green Dot today and a Smiley Face I was so Excited! I know she thinks I'm cheezy, But hey, Who says' the parents can't get excited??? That was my favorite Part in School..... Seeing if I got a Sticker or a Smiley Face! Made me Proud! Haha..

The Day went on and When it was time for Bed, I tucked her in and she wanted to say her Bed time Prayers. So we bowed our heads and she began to Pray. I love hearing what she talks to God About. sometimes she so serious with it and other times the things she says I just have to Giggle, But I know either Way our Lord is hearing and seeing her speak to him and he Loves that, So I let her Pour her heart out to him! Tonight was a Giggle on my Part. I have to share this.



"Lord Jesus, Thank you for my Eagle Cash at school today and We have good food their to, So Please Give me more Eagle Cash tomorrow and More good food. I Love my Classmates, Some can write their Names and some can't but it's okay because they will learn. Amen"



I know in her mind she meant every-bit of it in the sweetest way! :) Well Here's to day 3 tomorrow. Can't wait to see what it holds!

Enjoy the pics...

All the Best & God Bless,

Candace
