Hooray for Kindergarten!

Elliot is at her first morning of kindergarten right now.  A rainy morning is not keeping us down...tho working the umbrella and the oversized backpack with the huge lunch box to house just plain carrots for a snack, maybe contributed to the wipeout that occurred before Ben ever finished his question, "Do you think we would let her walk to school alone?" Then wipeout in the wet mud.  Good thing we were just across the street from our house.  No injuries, Elliot got to switch to her new leggings that she wanted to wear in the first place, and we were back on our way.  We all did great at drop off.  I am going to pick her up at 12:30.  Then there is no school tomorrow.  Then the rest of September she is done at 12:30.  But then in October she has class until 12:30 3 days a week and 3 PM 2 days a week.  Really?! How confusing could they make this?  I hope she loves it - she told me she already knows everything, so I expect her to be reading by the time I pick her up today.
