Gigi's Journal Entry About Kindergarteni

Gigi began a journal at the beginning of the month. She writes in it every few days or so. We wanted to be sure to capture the excitement of her first day of Kindergarten so we asked her to write & draw a picture. She drew all of her teachers except Miss Jonita, her violin teacher who comes on Tuesday & Thursday, and her soccer coach because it rained today and there was no soccer.  She said her favorite part of the day was when she learned Arabic. I labeled her teachers aa she explained who each was and what they taught her.

I was so anxious to pick her up today that I got to her school an hour early! Many children were already picked up for the day.  I guess I wasn't the only anxious parent!  I got to watch as Madame Pia played dominoes with the kids, in French!  They had learned some numbers in French today so this was to reinforce what they had learned. I was so proud when I heard her ask Gigi, in French, how many were on her dominoes and she answered her in French! She  appeared to have had a great day and I survived the anxiety of my baby starting kindergarten!!!

Three years ago today the phone rang...

...and our lives wer never the same again!!!  Thank God!

It still amazes me how quickly three years can zip by now that we have Gigi in our lives because when were waiting for her time would stand still for months at a time!  I think I will always be waiting for Gigi because that's what I basically do every day...wait for her to wake up, wait for the (always too quick) phone call from Nana saying that she picked her up from school, and, the longest, wait for the clock to tell me I can leave work to go home to her everyday.  I suppose it will only get worse with time...I'm sure in a blink I will be waiting for her phone calls & visits from college...I better not start thinking about that!!!

So happy to get her favorite book in Spanish!

As we left for school this morning our Amazon order was arriving.  We were super excited!  We only gave her one of the Spanish books and chose her favorite. She thought it was funny that it was in Spanish! She did good reading the color words too!  I can't wait for our bedtime reading time tonight!!!!
