Miles has Entered the Building!

Miles started his first day of kindergarten today amidst torrential rainfall (brought on by the remnants of Tropical Storm Fay), terrible flooding (some of the worst in decades across Charlotte), and an uprooted tree blocking the usual entrance to his school. We were a few minutes late - but we made it!



Miles woke up and said, "mommy, my whole body feels funny." He agreed that it felt like 'little butterflies' were in his tummy and I told him that I felt the same way on my first day of school. He decided to wear his school t-shirt and he completed the look with a humongous egg on his forehead (courtesy of so much fun playing in jumpy castles with his brothers and Ella & Jack yesterday).

The kindergarteners are staggered the first week, so today he's in class with 4 other boys. His second day will be Friday. The entire class will be there and he'll be riding the bus. Big week!
