A Big Week
It has been a very big week in the life of Harriet, who successfully underwent her first trip to the dentist (without a cavity to show for it!) on Tuesday and who this afternoon was registered for kindergarten in September. Initially, she was nervous about all the big kids and stuck close to me, until she was whisked away by a group of grade 6 “school ambassadors” who played with her while I filled out the paperwork. And then Harriet was presented with a brand new book, her own copy of Miss Bindergarten Gets Ready for Kindergarten, which we’ve had out of the library many, many times. It was a wonderful introduction to the kindergarten life, and Harriet is looking forward to it. I only cried a little bit.
Wait, Kindergarten starts at 3 in Ontario? My middle is turning 5 next week and we just registered him for K in BC.
Also: YAY! It’s a big deal, for everyone involved. Tears are allowed!
(Harriet turns 4 in May!! Junior Kindergarten starts at 4. We are excited…)
Oh! We don’t have Junior Kindergarten out here. Lucky Harriet!
