Sometimes you're worried. Sometimes you're mad.

Sometimes you feel afraid. I feel like crying.

Sometimes you're sad. Big feelings are okay.

It's okay to have big feelings. Big feelings are okay.

I'm here to stay with your big feelings.

Sometimes you're happy and you laugh real loud.

Sometimes you feel so silly. Or feel excited.

Sometimes you're proud. Big feelings are okay.

It's okay to have big feelings. Big feelings are okay.

I'm here to stay with your big feelings. I'm not afraid of your big feelings.

When I was a little girl, I got butterflies in my tummy. On the first day of kindergarten, I was a little nervous.

It's okay to be nervous. It's big change. But then guess what?

I met a friend, Jessica, on the bus. She was so nice.

I got to school and my teacher was really nice too. There were lots of fun new things to play with

and fun new friends at school. There's always a grown up there to help you.

I had such a great first day at school and then my mommy came to pick me up.

I was so happy to see her and we went home again.

I know you're going to do great in school. I'm so happy to see how you're growing and learning.

I am so proud of you. You're a great kid.

Bye bye friends. Bye bye friends.

Bye bye friends. I'll see you again real soon. Bye.
