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!!!
