My baby is growing up. Athena started Kindergarten 2 weeks ago. I have had a little trouble with the whole thing, but mostly just feeling left out of this part of her life. The campus is closed, so I have to just drop her off on the curb and watch her walk through a fence and hope she has a good day. I miss being able to talk to her teacher everyday and meet the kids in her class like I could when she was in pre-school.
I also miss having a second person in the car, not being able to use the HOV lane is frustrating. I hate being stuck in traffic and watching cars zoom by in the HOV lane, it is like pouring lemon juice over my already tender wounds of separation from Athena.
The school is having an icecream social on Wed. and i can't wait to meet some of the kids in her class. The kindergarten classes are also having a recital, probably to increase the attendance at the ice-cream social and the book fair. I will try to post a short video clip of the recital.
