movin' on up!

The highlight in Kindergarten land this week has been getting to eat in the big cafeteria to practice for 1st grade. In preschool and K-5 at Chapel, the snacks and lunch come to the classrooms instead of the children going to the cafeteria.

So in anticipation of their "graduation" to 1st grade next week, they got to go to the cafeteria yesterday and today. You would think this is the most exciting thing that's happened to Mac in 6 years. As I was tucking him into bed tonight, I got the complete commentary on what the tray looks like and what you put in each compartment, how you get to ask the cafeteria ladies for whatever food you want off the line, and how you have to very carefully hold your used utensils in one hand and the dirty napkin in the other while you put the tray in the dirty tray area. The highlight of the post-lunch process? Dropping the utensils down this chute that ends in water!

Oh to be 6 again to experience the simple joys of life!
