another child ready for school

today we took sister M to visit her kindergarten teacher... she was shy but oh so curious.

i caught myself thinking about what a wonderful teacher the kindergarten teacher is, how thankful i am that sister M gets to start her school career here, and i felt a small sense of loss for wilson. he will likely start first grade after coming home and i know what a struggle that was for sister L. every child should be able to transition to school with kindergarten. of course you can work out half days or some other schedule, but kindergarten should be a rite of passage for all children. it is the perfect mix of new things, fun things, learning and playing, all designed to prepare children for the long days of school that lie ahead without the actual stress of a full day. we cannot get wilson home fast enough... we love you sweet boy.
