I think first day at school to a just turned 5 year old is something like going for your 4 year old booster injections, you know it’s coming, and it will make you sad and cry and you just want to cling to your Mummy for reassurance!
Alexander put on a brave face this morning but I knew he was feeling tense and apprehensive about his first day at school. Luckily he has a very good friend who has just started as well (last week) and he has taken Alexander his wing this morning. Funnily it was Alexander who always comforted Jayden at kindy when he was sad or his Mum was leaving.
I’ve got his soggy wet tissues in my pocket from this morning’s tears; it was gut wrenching I tell you! I’ve had my little cry too!
I’m sure he will have a wonderful day, all be it rather long, they are making robots today out of cardboard etc. His teacher is lovely and she said she would call me at morning tea time to let me know how he is going.
