Next Chapter- Welcome to Kindergarten!

So I needed to hurry up and post regarding graduation because I wanted to get ready for kindergarten!  I cannot believe my baby has entered the academic arena.  I do know for sure, that this transition has been much more difficult for me than it has been for him.  Between school supplies, uniforms, paperwork, meetings, it has truly felt like a part time job!  In addition, we are introducing ourselves into a whole new community. 

Of course, my boy took it with stride.  I did not have a crying mess, clinging to my skirts.  Instead, I have a little one is who more than ready to jump out of the car seat into this new frontier, with playground, classmates and the like.  No tears here, just frazzled mommy nerves. 

Parents of the Year

After graduation, we went to lunch al fresco. I believe Scrumpy got bored and since the day was warm, asked if he could play by the fountain. To our defense, he has gone to the fountain many times before and lightly got his feet wet. Little did we know he meant to totally drench himself!








We tried to cart our sloppy mess back to the car and in the chaos that ensued, get him in his car seat as comfortably as possible.
The next day we were struggling to find his shoes. We didn't know if they were accidentally placed in the trunk of another car or stuffed in a bag somewhere. Frantically ripping the house apart and calling all graduation attendees, we were still at a loss.
In a last ditch effort, I asks Patrick to drive by where we parked "just in case". You can see where this is going right? Yup, sitting on the curb, sitting overnight were his shoes, Iron Man glow shoes, practically brand new!



Patrick said we were lucky no five year old came by and wanted them. I told him we were lucky no mom or auntie or a five year old walked by and saw them! Crisis averted!
