Which ties in perfectly with my free download today. I now have two little kids in school. They are completely opposite. One is a pleaser, one could care less what you think. (and that includes the teacher..you can imagine how easy this transition has been! ha.) BUT, one thing I have learned this week is to NEVER compare your children. Both can have excellent days at school for different reasons, and that is okay. One may have a great day, and the other has a horrible day..and THAT is okay. The one thing my husband and I do require is this:
SO while one child has figured that out and knows what that is, we are slowly teaching the other what that means in a new setting. Change is hard for everyone, right?! And even when my little boy has rotten days, I can say that when I pick him up, I can give him a hug and tell him I love him because I realize that being 5 is sometimes hard and trying new things is often difficult..and mostly because I know with time, doing our best comes and the sense of accomplishment that it is, is what drives us on to the bigger and better things.
I made two prints for you today with the same message. You can find the free 8x10 download HERE. Remember, free downloads are for followers of Kiki Creates ONLY (just takes a second on the sidebar, thanks!).

I LOVE your blog & all of your fun ideas. I have 2 kids in school too, and 2 at home. I feel like my days are so busy, especially with the kindergarten schedule.
This first week of kindergarten was supposed to be easy right? But, we already have a kid being a bully to my son- calling him names & hitting him- really- already in kindgarten!?
Thankfully the teacher is wonderful!
Thanks so much for your free download. I love your style. I have a free download on my blog this week too for Fall & Halloween

seriously kiki! My whole house is gonna have all your prints all over the place! That is... as soon as i unpack all the boxes.
I LOVE LOVE your work. Thank you so much once again
This is awesome! My middle daughter had a super hard week. This is just what she needs. She started middle school and it isn't going smoothly. I am going to print one out and put it in her room for her. Thank you so much!
As always, thank you! Truly. I just love these. I am going to be putting the boy one in their room. This is just perfect.
Your post is so true! Do your best is different for everyone. And as a mother of 5 I needed this reminder. Thanks for sharing!!
I love these! Thanks for sharing!
Can I keep him at my house? Your 5 year old...we get along great and I happen to adore him. I will even teach him something from time to time.
Love the prints - my second one started kinder and he could care less about the academics. Each night at the dinner table we have an accounting of who got in trouble, who peed their pants, and who got a puzzle piece taken away for bead behavior. ABC's, 123's - nope we have Mr. Noisy at our house
Beautiful! I love the message.
