In the words of Dora, "We did it! We did it! We did it, ya!" Kaylee was so excited when she got in the car and so was Campbell. My sweet girl said that she had a great day with a huge smile on her face, and that was before the trip to Cold Stone for an "after the first day" treat. I have to say that she look so adorable lined up against the wall waiting for me to drive up to get her. I wish that I could bottle up the smile on her face when she saw us and keep it forever. It made my heart smile.
Top 10 Things said by Kaylee about the First Day of Kindergarten:
1. "My favorite thing about the day was my teacher, I love her so much!! She is really nice:)"
2. "The music teacher said that I am a good singer."
3. "There are tickets for lunch if you want something hot and my teacher even showed us how to go through the line."
4. " A little boy sitting beside me at lunch was crying because he missed his Mom. I told him to think of happy times with his Mom. Then he stopped crying and smiled."
5. "Mom, you have homework every night because there is a folder you have to sign everyday. My teacher said I am suppose to tell you that."
6. "I met five new friends, but I cannot tell you their names. They were really nice though. I thought I would work on names after I get use to the school."
7. "I did not get my clip moved and did not get sent to the Principal's office." (said with much pride) If you know Kaylee at all you know that she is a strict rule follower so I would never think for a moment that she would be sent to the principal. I think she is just really unsure of the Principal's job.
8. "My friend 'R' had the same kind of backpack and lunchbox as me only in a different color. His Mom must shop at the same online store as you."
9. "Most everyone in class listened except for one child...I am sure they will do better tomorrow."
10. "I got to read a book to my teacher and she said we were all good readers. I also rested very quietly at nap time and the teacher was proud of us."

Thank you Lord for a great first day! It is such a comfort to know that Kaylee is so happy. May the rest of the year be as blessed as the first day.

So sweet! I have been thinking about all of my sweet, sweet friends and their little girls this week. i am so glad that Kaylee had a great first day :)
I'm glad she had such a good day. She sounds like a natural!
They don't do naps around here in K. Made for a long day!
What a sweet, caring girl! It sounds like she will be a teacher, too.
The difference between boys and girls:
"Thomas, how was your first day?"
"Great!"
"Can you tell me about it?"
"I don't remember." (Translated, I don't feel like talking about it!)
Precious! What wonderful first day pictures and memories! I love the breakfast tradition. I hope the second day was as good as the first!
So funny! I can hear Kaylee's voice saying all of those things. :-)
That is a GREAT list of quotes. :) She will love reading those someday! And, I especially love that she made a little boy feel better when he was missing mom. That sounds just like sweet Kaylee to help a friend like that. I'm so glad that the day ended as wonderfully as it started! (And, with another one of my favorite treats!!)
What special quotes. They grow up so fast! I need that website.
So glad it went well. I laughed when I read Elizabeth's post because that is the difference between boys and girls.
Thanks for your sweet note on my blog! Landry and Kaylee are so much alike. She, too, met *best* friends whose names she can't remember! I hope she continues to have a great week!
Way to go Kaylee! I love her first day of school outfit!
I LOVE that list! Kaylee cracks me up!!
Don't you know that I had to pry and ask Kylie specific questions about the day. She did tell me that she almost got on yellow yesterday!!!
