Today I was lucky enough to register my sweet baby Korban for Kindergarten. I say lucky enough because I have been sick and I wasn't sure I was going to be able to. But I was. Yeah...He was so excited to go to school. As soon as we got in, we went into the multi-purpose room so I could fill out all of the endless paper work and he ran around with all of the other pre-kindergartners. He was having so much fun running and playing, then it abruptly stopped and he came and sat with me. This isn't usual for Korban when other kids are around who are being crazy rambunctious. I asked him if everything was okay and he said "NO". I then ask all of the endless questions to see if I can pry it out of him and he won't budge.
On a side note, my daughters never did that. If you asked them what was wrong, the would tell you. that is the difference between girls and boys i think. girls will talk and tell you what is up. boys are cryptic and will tell you when they are ready. i hate that. Just tell me what is on your mind and I will see what I can do to help you. ARGH..
Once we were outside and walking to the car, Korban said to me "Mom, I'm not going to school for learning, I am going to play on the playground". That's just great. In reality, I knew that. He is a boy, and he is my boy. I have really been contemplating on even sending him to school this next year, because he turns 5 in July. I think that might be a bit early, but everyone I talk to says' just send him. He will be fine. Even my mother-in law says DO IT.. And she would know, she teaches school. Maybe it is because he is my baby boy, and he isn't even a baby.. He is so sensitive and I worry.. Maybe this is my lesson in life. I can't control everything, so I just need to get over it..
That is so hilarious. What a crack up!
ReplyDeleteGood luck with the school thing. I have no advice on that one. I can't even imagine the day that I have to register Keelia for school. Scary!!
Oh, I can't believe he's starting kindergarten! What a big boy! He is hilarious! I LOVED seeing you the other night, you are seriously the best! I just love ya!
ReplyDeleteWow, kindergarten so soon. It was just yesterday that I remember him being a big blue eyed toddler cuddle with his dad,
ReplyDeleteWell, you just get used to that "Out of Control" feeling. It gets worse! I really can't believe he is big enough for Kindergarten- but then, so is Bella. How'd that happen??
ReplyDeleteI can't believe he is that old already!! Crazy how fast they grow!! Good luck!!
ReplyDeleteI can't believe he is old enough for kindergarten!!! That is crazy!! I love the picture of the Wii stick in his eye!! lol He is hilarious!
ReplyDeleteschool registration...that makes me sad to think about Ü
ReplyDeleteMight as well add my one cent worth to the "do I send a boy with a summer birthday to school at age five?" struggle. As a second grade teacher who is struggling with four boys who are so immmature in second grade that everyday is difficult--don't send him. He will be so much better off having another year to mature at home and school will be so much easier for him. There it is. I love reading about your precious family. Glad you are okay. I love you.
