We knew that Linc might get a bit overwhelmed with starting at a new school, compounded by all of the hype surrounding starting KINDERGARTEN, and so Mum and Dad both took Linc to school for his first day. He lined up with his class on the concrete quadrangle, with Mum and Dad at each end of the line; next thing all lines of classes of all ages stood up and started to disperse - and we lost Linc. We eventually located him (another Mother had found him), but the damage was already done... in his eyes we had abandoned him to the big wide world of uncertainty and confusion and he did not want us to leave him!
The time came, however, when all parents had to leave and, with both Linc and Mum in tears, we left him with one of the teacher's assistants to distract him long enough to make our getaway.
Dad took this afternoon off work and we both were there waiting for Linc when he finished at 1510hrs; he looked like he had had a great day, but he also looked a little exhausted... can't imagine what he will be like at the end of this week (a full week in the first week back is probably a bit much IMHO)...
