Palmer's First Day of Kindergarten

Today was the day I have been looking forward to/dreading since Palmer was born. Sending him out into the world, sort of. Palmer has been so excited about starting Kindergarten and is very ready for it.

Lincoln and Hunter really missed Palmer while he was gone.

Finally it is time to go!

Lincoln totally misunderstood us and thought he was going to school with Palmer, huge let down. Luckily he gets to go to his back to school night for preschool on Wednesday.

I am so glad that Savanna is in Palmer's class, it helped Palmer to not be so nervous. After school I asked him who he played with at recess and he told me Savanna. Palmer isn't shy, this is definitely helping him grow!

Already being wild before they even get into class, good luck this year Mrs. Warring!

Totally full of confidence when he walked in the class room. He was so excited for school to start.

Me keeping the other boys busy while Josh walked Palmer into class (I couldn't do it, I was about to throw up I was so nervous for him!)

First picture of Palmer after school. He seemed really quiet. I asked him if he had fun and he said yes, I asked him if he made any friends and he said "no, I was too worried they would say no." Yes this broke my heart. Can I send him back again tomorrow? This is totally not like Palmer at all! He kept saying he liked school, but I am not so sure.

Palmer and his buddy Cody, I apparently wasn't looking when I took this picture, hence Cody's body is cut off! We start babysitting Cody tomorrow. The boys are so excited!

Palmer got to pick his after school snack and he chose chocolate chip cookies. It made me feel like such a good mom to have cookies and milk waiting for him after school. That is what the Bernstein Bear mom would do and she is the ultimate role model in mothering, didn't you know? After a few cookies and being around the brothers, he was his old self in no time.
