First Day of Kindergarten = Success :-)

August 22nd 2011 - Havi's first day at Kindergarten - or should I say Havana's!

A few months ago when we went to enroll Havana at school there was a question on one of the many forms that asked "Name your child goes by?" - I went to Havi for the answer. When starting Kinder with a whole new set of friends, what name does she want to go by. She picked Havana :-)

Well, it stuck and Havana's first day was today. Not to be confused with the Savanna that's in her class!

She had a wonderful first day. She jumped out of bed at 6.40am when the alarm clock went off - it didn't even have chance to buzz twice. Pretty sure she was awake and waiting for it! She was shocked (as were we) to see it was still dark outside!

By 7.10am we were dressed, breakfast had been eaten, and we were on our way to school - after posing for pictures of course!

... and of course in her classroom!

Then one sneaky one after we'd left.... just to make sure she wasn't following us!

Not a single tear from Havi (the same cannot be said for me), she did admit to being nervous, but excited too.

At 2.25pm Peter and I waited anxiously to hear about her first day. Apparently "lunch was good", "I made new friends", "I kissed my brain" and "had lots of fun"... so I would deem the day a success.

Bring on the rest of the school year!
