Decker Starts Kindergarten

Decker started kindergarten this year at Pella Christian Grade School.  Can’t believe my baby is 6 and going to school (tear).  He started on Monday 8/24 and his teacher this year is Miss Crystal.  He gets to ride the bus this year and is very excited about it.  For the bus he rides it to and from Sheri’s house (daycare) each day.  It works out quite well to have one drop off and pick up for the kids.  Decker LOVED school!  I think his exact quote was “It was awesome.”  His favorite things so far are recess and PE – go figure.  He gets to be in class with some of his friends from preschool and Pre-K so that was comforting to him and he had no fear of starting to school.  The first day I saw him get on the bus then went to school and watched him get off the bus and take pictures (many moms were doing this!)  He came running off the bus to me and held my hand walking into school with all the kids getting off the buses at once, a little chaotic.  About halfway through the building he realized no one else was holding their moms hand so he let go.  Don’t know why that hit me but it did.  Luckily I held back my tear until I got in the car alone.  We are so happy that Decker is loving school so much and know he will have an amazing year at PCGS!
He was so excited to ride on the bus!
