Kindergarten

Tomorrow is WA's first day of Kindergarten. Weird. I'm supposed to be all sentimental and sad, but circumstances have me feeling neutral. See, WA is going to a "private Kindergarten" that is associated with his daycare. Sound nuts? Well yeah, it kinda is, except for one thing...New Albany only has half day Kindergarten with no aftercare. So rather than drop WA off in one location, hussle to their current daycare to drop off IA; only to reverse in the afternoon, we chose to send him to Kindergarten in the same facility. It doesn't hurt that neighbors of ours sent their two girls there and rave about it (and I also got some other glowing recommendations). But it sort of feels (at least to me) like he's moving to a new room. No school bus, no new building, no reduced daycare bill. Granted I know that he's in for a totally different experience, but for me it feels very much the same. While I am excited for him, talk to me when first grade hits, then I might be a blubbery mess.
