1 Down, a Kajillion to Go

Well, Ava is now a kindergartener! She went to school, she came home, and magically, the earth continued to turn on its axis. Huh. Who woulda thunk? She seemed to have a great time, but was reallly overtired at bedtime, as evidenced by the meltdown that she just finished having in her room. (Like a good mother, I administered threats until she stopped.) Here's a few photos of our day...(meltdown not included)

Getting Ready...



Set Phasers to "Adorable"



They all look like turtles with these packs on!




Uh...Mom?


All-Important Post-School De-Brief at Local GJ's (Typical Ava answer to our questions: "Um, I don't remember." Satisfying!)

All in all, a great start. I met some lovely mums at the Parent Committee's "Tea and Tissues" after the drop-off, and what do you know--Ava didn't come out of school immediately saying "zed" and "tomahto". Maybe this won't be so bad after all!

Soon to come...the low down on fasting, as many of our readers have requested. (Uh, hi Matt!)
