Kaitlyn's First day of First Grade

At the dinner table after Kaitlyn's first day of 1st grade we asked her about her day.... Here are parts of the conversation...

Us: Kaitlyn, how was your first day of school?
K: Fun.  My favorite part of the day is Recess.  The playground is so much fun.  They have a tire swing and monkey bars.
Us: What else did you like and do?
K: We played and I got to type my lunch number into this cool keypad.  Now, can we go back to talking about Recess?
Us: (Laughing) okay what else do you like about recess?
** She further explained about Recess and how much fun she had.
Us: We continued to ask her more about her day...
K: I really don't like my bus teacher.  (aka: Bus Driver)
Us: Why?
K: He makes us sit down when the bus is moving.

Another interesting conversation happened a few days later while I was getting Kaitlyn's lunch ready.

Me: Can you bring your water bottle to lunch with you?
K: Yes
Me: Okay, good... can you buy milk if you wanted to if you bring home lunch?
K: Mom, I am really trying to like chocolate milk!
Me: Oh, you know chocolate milk isn't that good for you.  Why don't you just get white milk?
K: Because, everyone else gets chocolate milk... Like everyone in the whole world.
Me: Oh, but you don't have to drink chocolate milk if you don't like even if everyone else is.  Just get the white milk since you know you like that.
K: Okay mom!
** I asked her the next day and she did get white milk the next time.
*** I guess peer pressure or conformity starts this early.
