Well, today is the first day of kindergarten for my little guy, and his teacher asked all the children to decorate a paper bear and bring in a stuffed bear for the first day. They also have a bear pin to wear with their name on it.
Here is Michael’s bear:
A tiny bit of explanation: the red, blue & yellow on the face represent each of our favorite colors, and the purple, yellow and red stripes are the pattern on his shirt.
Hopefully today will be a good day. His behavioral health agency delayed some paperwork and is also having staffing issues, so he will not have a support person with him for at least the first couple of days and he will not be able to attend the social skills program after school either. On the positive side, he will get to have a playdate at his best friend’s house today instead!
Head on over and post your own Magic Marker Monday!

I love it! It looks like his bear is smiling
. That’s great how he did the stripes on the shirt to look like his too.
Oh, this is cute! I love the description because it explained so much.
So sorry about the delays. It happens all the time and hopefully things will work out soon. ((hugs))
Love the bear! I am sorry to hear about the delays also but it will work itself out. Just keep your fingers crossed.
Today is the start of week 2 for my kiddos and let’s just say, didn’t start off good for Little Man – the bus never showed up! Ugh!
His bear is fantastic!
What a cute idea! Just love the bear!!!
He did such a good job with the face
ps I just noticed you are from PA! Now I really hope we move up there!
I LOVE the bear, Trish! That is just the cutest! I love the way he put so much thought into it and that he decorated the bear with a matching shirt — he’s a creative little guy
Sorry you’re having such a rough start with your support staff and all — I hope it all gets straightened out quickly. I really feel for you on this — we couldn’t get the support staff we needed for Jacqui, so we ended up homeschooling instead. It’s working out well though. I hope Michael has a fabulous first year in school

So cute! I love his shirt!
Very cute! I hope today was a good day too.
Cute bear! I love the stripes and the SMILE! Very nice! Sorry to hear about the delays. Hope it all works itself out quickly. Good luck in school, Michael!
p.s. I stumbled your 5 minutes one but as you know there are a zillion and a half categories over there so some guidance on that point would be helpful..
I don’t know the Kirsty site = is it better / easier?
Cheers
