First Day of Kindergarten

Today is Keisha's first day of Kindergarten:

The teachers had a one-hour meeting with parents to talk about how the classes operate. There is a huge emphasis on the kids' learning how to read. The meeting conveyed a lot of important stuff for us parents, but there were a couple of times when Keisha turned to me and said, "Are they almost done?"

Then, after the meeting adjourned the kids went to their chairs and sat down. I went to Keisha and said, "I'm going to go now, and Ms. Fabian will take care of you. She knows exactly what time the bus will be coming to take you home."

Keisha smiled. I gave her a kiss, and then I left, half wishing that I could be a fly on the wall.
