Cade's First Day Of School EVER!
So today was Cade's first day of school. He now enters the world of academia totally unaware of what lies ahead of him. He got his new hat and backpack and was excited about starting kindergarten. It has been a year now that Cade has been talking about school. One of his buddies @ daycare started a year before him and he felt a little left out.
Cale got upset when he found out he wasn't going with Cade. It was funny and sad at the same time. Check out some of the Flickr pictures for his reaction.
Overall, Cade had a great time at school. Before he left, I asked him what he wanted to do when he grows up, a question I often ask him. Here's how it went:
Craig: What do you want to do when you grow up?
Cade: Scientist
Craig: Scienist? That's cool.
Cade: And I want to be a race car driver.
Craig: (laughs) Grandma would be happy to see that. (I happened to be video taping this)
Cade: And I want to be a pilot.
Craig: Ha! Grandpa would be happy about that! What else do you want to do?
Cade: I do want to take care of dogs.
Craig: That's cool. Like a veterinarian?
Cade: A vet-ta-terra-ian.
So, anyway, we head off and meet at the school. (We school choiced Cade to a different school.) Shelly drops him off on the way to work and our daycare provider, an extension of our family, picks him up when he's done for the day. I took my own car so I could go straight to work, which is conveniently just up the street. I suppose all first days of school are nuts. This one was no exception. The lot was full, people were parking on the grass. Parents were everywhere wielding cameras and taking pictures. It was actually quite fun.
Cade was the first one in. We hung around for a few minutes and took some pictures. Shelly showed signs of separation anxiety once again. :) I nearly had to drag her out. LOL!
Cade had a really nice time and enjoyed his day. He's looking forward to going back tomorrow and filling his head with knowledge. Cale, from what I understand, gave him a warm welcome when he returned to daycare and was very happy to see him. Apparently he missed his older brother. :)
Ah, the sweet innocence. He loves it now... Just wait until the homework and term papers starts rolling in full force. That'll wake him up to reality. :) But in the meantime... Enjoy it while he can.
