The big day has finally arrived! Leilani is off to Kindergarten. After months of debate and discussion, we opted to send her to a school in our district (instead of our neighborhood school). She's been counting the days all summer.
She wanted to take a gift to her teacher for the first day. I did too. Poor Mrs. Nelson has NO IDEA what she's gotten herself into. I wonder how long it will be before we get the call home telling us that Ms. Leilani has taken over the class. It's just a matter of time. We decided to take her fresh picked roses from our yard.
Leilani was so excited to take her lunchbox to school. We opted for a Bento style lunch system and then she and I decorated the carrier. She was so proud of our artwork!
First day of school lunch= Butterfly shaped sandwich ("Mama. Food always tastes better when it's fun-shaped."), grapes and strawberries, pretzels and grape tomatoes.
PS. The Kindergarten Open House was the week before school started. Leilani was the only student who had both parents AND grandparents. (You know Grandy and Poppy wouldn't miss it!) I wonder if that's a sign that the Flowers Family is going to be trouble?!
