DD, Dh and I are very excited about registration and picnic tomorrow at DD's new school. It will actually seem "real" after this I think. Anyone else on that is registering at Anderson tomorrow? [ Reply | Watch | Flag ]

Wow - people are being so mean on here. I'm a new A parent too. There's just a troll or two on here trying to make new A parents question their enrollment in the school. Registration is tomorrow afternoon. The picnic is on (weather permitting) and so are the events on Wednesday. See you there! [ Reply | More

The picnic is always after work so both working and non-working parents have an opportunity to meet one another. Most families on a warm day have their kids out until dinnertime and this picnic includes bringing your own picnic dinner. I always enjoyed going to them with my kids and then plunked them in the tub, exhausted and full of stories of new friends. [ Reply | More

I guess we're all just a little more excited than we need to be and, since I don't know any new Anderson moms in real life I do find myself coming here to see what's going on. And, for a class of only 50 kids, there does seem to be pretty strong A representation here. [ Reply | More

I'm sure you're right, but even 10 is a lot! If 20% of the new Anderson class is on here, that's crazy odds. Anyway, I'm sure we'll all meet people in real life tomorrow and stop being annoying to all the other parents out there. [ Reply | More
