Surviving the Domestic Jungle

So here it is another exciting Saturday night and all I can think about is Monday. Monday is an epic, life changing day. The day Avery starts Kindergarten. I am so nervous yet excited about it. I can’t believe this day has come so soon!! We went to the meet the teacher yesterday which was a nice experience. I am really nervous about picking up my daughter and they have this whole system so it seems pretty easy. We met the teacher, Mrs. Greene, who encompasses each and every stereotype that you could imagine for a kindergarten teacher. Big smile, extra friendly and a warmness about her that you instantly feel comfortable. I’m sure she is just as nervous as all the other parents and kids but she never wavered in her confidence and extra helpfulness. I feel very comfortable with her teaching my daughter. WHEW!! While we were there we got school supplies and signed up for the car pick up system and then go the heck out of that circus! It was craziness with all the parents! All in all I very really good about the school and the teacher and so does Avery which is the most important thing. We went and got another pair of new shoes today and she is set for school. She has a wardrobe most women would envy (thanks to two very generous grandmothers and a mother who has the inability to say no) and she will be the best dressed kid in kindergarten ever! Monday morning I will probably take a thousand pictures of my little student but she loves the camera so she will be ok with it. I really cant wait!!
