4K is AWESOME!

Today was Alex's first day of 4 year old Kindergarten. And in his word it was "AWESOME"! He is going to the same school this year that he did last year and knows a few of the boys and girls in his class. He met his teacher on Sunday afternoon at Preschool Popsicles and Playtime @ the Playground. It was lots of fun! His teacher is originally from Texas, so never fear, Alex will not lose those Texas roots this year! I think he is going to have a great year! We will have to see what new things he learns as he goes through the year! He is starting to get interested in the whole reading thing! He was even able to read a page in one of his books last night. It was really exciting to watch him figure out the words. I get to see kids do that same thing every year at school, but it is really special when it is your own little boy who is doing the reading!

Below are a few pictures of Alex before he headed off to school this morning! I am turning into one of "those mothers" who makes my children take random pictures for the sake of tradition.....oh well, it won't kill them! Please notice the backpack...Alex was very proud of his camo backpack (that he picked out himself) with Clemson Tiger Orange letters on the front. (no redneck jokes, please!! : )
