Kindergarten

 L started kindergarten today.  We meant to have him do VPK, but then that situation didn't pan out.  We meant to have him do kindergarten last year but then there was a pandemic.  He's fully vaccinated now and needs peers.  He has spent his whole life as the baby of the family.  He's like me, quite smart and very charming, but with older siblings so smart that he feels dumb.  

When we went to meet the teacher yesterday he told her that he didn't know much.  

I pray he has a good experience and finds peers.  I think he'll love having a class of kids since he's the most social of all the kids.  He is the most attached of all the children.  For over a year he would tell me that he never wanted to leave me and would miss me so much.  He feels things so deeply.

I went shopping to gather the school supplies including a miniature set of headphones.  I packed all his supplies and got his masks ready.  It's hard to send a child to school for the first time in the middle of a pandemic.  

I was driving the highschool kids this morning so I wasn't going to be able to drop him off.  P called me so I could chat with him.  The connection wasn't clear but he sang "I am a Child of God" for me.  I love him so much.
