Rough day for the Kindergartener

My Prince on his 4th day of Kindergarten!

Princess on her 4th day of 2nd Grade!

My little Prince had a rough day at school yesterday. A neighbor of mine saw him crying in the cafeteria, where they corral the kids before school starts. She found out from her first grader what class the Prince was in and went in to see if he was OK. At that point he was just sniffling but was doing loads better.

I went to help in the lunch room yesterday. The first weeks of school are always hard for the new kids on the block. Little hands have a hard time opening milk cartons, juice boxes, and individually wrapped lunch items. I volunteered to help the kids with this. What I really wanted to do was to sit by my little Prince. I worked until all of the kids we eating their lunches and then I went over to sit by him. He was so happy to see me!!

I know that every child has to go though this, but that does not make it any easier. He is my child and he was hurting. The Knight and I are going back for lunch today. Here's to hoping he is having a better morning!

You are so right, it is so hard to watch our kids when they are having a rough time.

I think it is great that you went in to help.

And here's hoping for a better rest of the year!

I'm behind again this week, but wanted to say that your two 'back-to-schoolers' look adorable! We're starting 2nd grade and kindergarten too - next week.

I hope that the Prince's day goes better tomorrow!
