Kindergarten!

Lincoln started Kindergarten on September 1st. He was so excited! His teacher this year is Mrs. Melzer, who is super nice. Because Lincoln was in the preschool at Ridgeline last year I was more relaxed about him starting Kindergarten {although I still had to follow the bus down for a few days to make sure he was okay.....and I did shed a tear or two....}. I think he'll have a great year, and I'm excited for him to learn lots of new things.

I must mention that when he went in for his Kindergarten assessment the week before we both walked out feeling a bit overwhelmed. Lincoln's pretty shy around people he doesn't know, and when the teacher started asking him questions he got even more nervous. He did pretty well until this question:
Mrs. Melzer- "I'm going to say a sentence and I want you to write what I say. I can see the black dog by the tree."
Lincoln- "uhhhhhhhh"

He got the "I"......

What pre-K kid knows how to do that {and don't tell me your kid does. I don't want to know....I'll feel like more of a failure.}??
