moving up - literally

we weren't sure when madely would move up to the kindergarten class at church - apparently today was the day! when we printed out the name badges, hers had a different room number. matt went to drop off mason and maddux and i took madelyn to find her new room. and it was upstairs!

madelyn was so excited and kept saying "i really always wanted to go upstairs!" when she wants to share news with those around her, she will repeat it over and over again in a sugary, happy tone. and that is what she did the whole way through the church and would say "i can't believe i am five and get to go with the big kids upstairs! i always wanted to go upstairs!" so silly.

the kindergarten 'class' is really like a church service with k, 1st and 2nd graders. she had a great time, or at least she did until it was time to get a 'thankful' notebook to take home and write what she was thankful for in it. she wanted a pink glitter one and all they had left were purple ones. I don't think it helped that the little girl helping to pass them out was flaunting the pink one in her hand as "the last one and you can't have it" over and over. so madelyn started to cry because she "doesn't like purple".

we had a nice chat about contentment on the way to the car. love.
