Class lists were posted last night and Brooks found out he will have the wonderful Mrs. S. as his Kindergarten teacher. I couldn’t be happier! He has many friends in class and so many amazing families!
This morning was such an exciting time for Brooks, he got to visit the class with all the other new students to meet the teacher! We are both looking forward to a very fun year!
Now he’s off to sleep, but not before we read ‘The Kissing Hand’ … a back to school favorite. I know tomorrow will be a great first day of school! xoxo

san diego child and family photographer | San Diego CA Newborn, Child, Senior & Family Portrait Photographer | Jules Trandem Photography - [...] Today our theme is simple. When I think about simple, the first thing that comes to mind is the simple magic of childhood. For Brooks that involves one of his favorite parts of his kindergarten day … the class mascot … Corduroy. It’s amazing how something so simple as this little bear could bring such magic and joy to my child. He truly believes that Corduroy is alive. Thank you sooooo much Mrs. S. for bringing so much happiness to my little kindergartener. (Here is a fun set of Brooks from the morning he met his wonderful K teacher.) [...]
