Today was Lily's first day of Kindergarten. I had this wonderful fantasy that she would wake up so happy, excited, and eager to go to school. Instead...we got tears, temper tantrums, and a battle of wills....oh well...so much for my fantasy...
We were even a tiny bit late for school. However, once the battles were over and she was dressed and ready to go, she posed happily for the camera. Go figure. I raced home from work early to see her get off the bus. The photo captures it all! She seemed to enjoy her first day and spoke very animatedly about the gingerbread man and how he left the book and left multiple clues/trails all over the school. She even came home and set a gingerbread man trap!
Unfortunately, the evening ended with more of the same. Lily was excused from dinner for not listening and hence began to lose multiple toys, having another screaming temper tantrum, and ended up having to get dressed and go to bed early. Needless to say, it was not the way I pictured today!
Let's hope that tomorrow is a lot better!
