Gotta love...

Yippee! Can't wait to hear all about his day! All your blog readers are so excited to hear about Simon's "ringing of the doorbell", I can't imagine how excited you are!!! Go Simon Go!

I am very, very happy for you and Chris and, especially, Simon!! Enjoy!!

I here ya sister! I do everything I can to not call Madison's classroom and check on her daily....I knew he would be fine Ali - now go work!!!
hugs,

Rock on, mama! You are awesome! :D

Thnak God for the little things that make such a huge impact on being a parent. I am so excited for Simon. I feel as if he is a little boy in my neighborhood. Hugs and Keep Peaceful

What an awesome school/teacher to call and let you know everything was OK...
Now the big question...He wants to ring the doorbell... Is someone going to be taking his picture as he rings it? (reinact it later?) I along with tons of others can't wait to read about his day!!!
WAY TO GO SIMON!

Ok, do me a favor, Ali... Call her back and ask her if they have room for one more. I will start packing!
Seriously, that is so cool of them. :)

So exciting. :) Hugs sista. Love ya.

The first day is always a little scary, more for mom than anyone. Everything is going to be great! Good for Simon!!

I knew it! have your camera ready for the doorbell!

I am so with you. My older son (the one with Autism) had his first day of Kindergarten yesterday. It went so well - far better than what we had prepared for. It just shows that these little guys (and girls) are amazing, and that they can handle and learn much more than we might think!

My eyes have welled right up at the thought of Simon at school doing so beautifully. How wonderful. And how great of the school to call you - must be a fabulous place full of caring people. So thrilled for you all.

I am teary eyed just reading your post. My baby boy started 4K on Tuesday and my hormones are still all over the place!
His teacher sent pictures on the first day via email to all the parents. I sent her a note thanking her (how cool for me to get the "inside pictures" for his scrapbook). She wrote me back saying he had a great day. SNIFF
Today, again, more pictures of them outside playing. She purposely made sure to get every child and there is one of my son by himself, hamming it up. I love her for doing this. I feel less anxious now that I have seen him having fun with his new friends.
How come no one told me how emotional/gut-wrenching these first days of school are?
Looking forward to reading your next post!
P.

Right on Simon! That is so wonderful of them to call you and I can feel your happiness from here.

oh i love that they called you!...that is so wonderful...hooray for simon, kindergarten superstar:)

YIPPPEEEE!

Yea Simon! Yea Mama! Yea Daddy! Yea School!
YEA!
XXOXX

What a cool school he must go to. Wish the district around here was that good, unfortunately it's SO not.

Ali, I am so pleased that the school called to let you know all is going well. What a relief and how thoughtful are they??? Hoping you can carry on with your day with a big smile on your face.

Hi Ali,
OK, it's totally not the same situation but I'm sure it's the same "mommy feeling". My oldest started high school today. Came from a really small school where he was a "big deal" to a large high school out of our area where he doesn't really know anyone. My heart was heavy as he got out of the car to find have to find his own way. Wish his school would call to say he was OK.
Glad all is well with Simon!
