Were You Nervous On Your Child's First Day Of Kindergarten?

Melody Thomas Scott:
"No.  From the time Alex started nursery school, she was so independent that she put one foot in the schoolroom door, barely stopping to say, 'Good-bye, Mommy.'  I felt out of place with all the other kids crying and clinging to their parents' legs.  Alex was like, 'See ya' -- happily going off to make new friends."
