KINDERGARTEN....wth?!

We are 1 week in to this school year. 1 week into our first go round with public school. 1 week into kindergarten.  I drop my BABY off in the mornings and he says bye and walks himself inside.  He will be 6 in March.. when the heck did this happen??!! I am floored by how much he has grown. He is really smart, and I am not just saying that because he is mine. The way he thinks about things and problem solves is amazing.  
He is going to the school I went to for kindergarten through 5th grade. It is so neat to be able to go back into that school and see how its changed. It is even better to see how it has not changed. It smells the same. It has been updated, but overall it looks the same.  I can look at doors or halls and immediately be taken back to when I walked those halls. I can show you where my science projects were in the hall. I can show you where I sat in the cafeteria for assemblies.  I can remember where I had to stand when I was a safety patrol.  I can tell you where I was on stage with choir when I first learned to sing "50 Nifty United States" (I can still sing it today) I have been to fall festivals there. Book fairs. Secret Santa shop. The school store. Tornado drills. Earthquake drills.
So much more. I cannot wait to do it all again with Zak. I hope being a Mustang means as much to him as it did to me.  
He has only had 1 complaint so far. The school day is to long. Lol 5 year old me would agree 100%!

(Now... there are those who will read this and say, "well, it's time to have another one right?" 
The answer is no. If it were the time, right now, I'd be pregnant... and I'm not. )
