First day of School



So, today is the day we have been waiting for all summer when Nathaniel John Eves hits the school trail.
He has been so excited but as I suspected he did not take kindly to me waking him up at 7am - what can I say he takes after his dad (although today daddy was up).  So Mr Grumpy got up sulked then went back to bed, after about 20 minutes he got up and had breakfast and got dressed, 

He was now excited, grabbing his backpack we went to the car, the journey was not problematic at all and we got to school at 7.55 so maybe we can leave 5 mins later tomorrow,
This gave him a chance to pick the best peg,  his new friend Vivian was also there with her mum and dad.

Having waited a long time and the doors hadnt opened he headed to the Monkey Bars for a quick play.  The headmistress (principle) was going around waving and chatting with parents, the school was full of excited chatter and the loveliest thing was that there was many mums and dads there to say goodbye to their child on the first day of school, not just for kindergarten, it is nice it is still a special family event.

We found his cubbie and off he went, to enjoy his day (hopefully), I will pick him up at 1.30
