First Official Day of Kindergarten

Today, September 2, 2008 is Ben's "official" first day of kindergarten. I say "official" because he actually started kindergarten last year, a year early, but because we had no clue he was moving up from pre-K we didn't manage to get the First Day of Kindergarten photo. This year is a smaller class than last, and fingers crossed, there'll be less drama than last year (thanks to one particular very naughty kid who managed to disrupt all the others). Notice Ben's new shoes, which we bought yesterday for him. I just hope he never has to take them off at school, because the teachers will hate having to deal with lacing them up.
