m2gts - I'm the same way. Like at the orientation thing, DS had a meltdown from being totally overwhelmed with how many people were there, not knowing anyone in his class, etc... then today, he didn't even want anyone to walk him to his classroom for the first day. It's like he's Mr. Independent Amazingly Behaved one day and the next he's 2yrs old again. And I'm hoping the same thing happens with my DS - the whole start in K, then assess him to see if he needs to be in a different class/grade.

I do find it "funny" that he was watching the weather like a hawk this morning. He was very upset when they said there was a chance of rain b/c he has PE today (they do an "extras" rotation for PE, Music, Art, etc). He was so sad that he might not have it b/c of the weather. But when I explained there was a gym, he was like "whew"! He's more excited about PE (and his other "extras") than regular class b/c he knows he's going to be bored.

PS. Mom was a little bit of a mess this morning, but she survived - LOL
