First Day of Kindergarten

Off she went yesterday to her first day of kindergarten! No anxiety about riding the school bus for this kid!

And, coming home again:

She seems to have had a great first day. She told us about various assessments she was given (naming pictures of objects, rhyming words, building block towers using patterns, letter and number recognition, and even apparently skipping, hopping on one foot etc). If she is to be believed, she aced all of them ;) 

Whether or not that is true, one thing IS true, which is that she stayed dry all day yesterday, I mean completely 100% dry. At one point yesterday late afternoon (after hopping up from the computer and running to the bathroom when her watch vibrated) she came back into my office and said, "You know Mom, I think this pee pee watch is really helping me!" So there you have it. She listens to a watch but not to her mother ;) If I had told her it was time to get up from the computer and go use the bathroom, she would have thrown an automatic fit and claimed she didn't have to go. Hopefully by the time the novelty wears off, she will have gotten into the habit of frequent bathroom trips and will be enjoying being dry for once!
