It's the big day and our little one was quite nervous. He actually coined a new term the day before: 'extervous'. Ledger said that there wasn't a word for how he was feeling so he had to make one up! Its a combination of excited and nervous. He was looking forward to the start of his 2nd grade year, but was very nervous about starting it at a new school without knowing anyone. He got up and had breakfast, asking questions the whole time about what he could expect. We weren't exactly sure either, but we reassured him that it would go well and he would make friends easily (he's the funny kid in class, everyone likes that kid!).
Diana and I walked him to school together (which is really cool that we are that close!). We had him say hi to his teacher and showed him what door to go in. He was feeling a bit more comfortable and went off to play on the equipment. We stuck around a few more minutes so we could wave to him as he went in after the morning bell rang, but then he was on his own, starting a new year at a new school. Good luck, kid!
