Owen started his first day of kindergarten on August 15, 2011. At recess, he fell off the play gym but suffered only a small scrape. The lunchroom cook called home to say that the corndog he ordered at lunch had soy in it, which he is allergic to. I gave her permission to give it to him since the type of soy in the corndog has not produced a reaction in him before. He was upset when he got home that the teacher had given him someone else's folder. He was very excited about a bus shaped cake his teacher had baked. He said it was the best part of his day. Then I read a letter his teacher sent home apologizing about putting almond extract in the cake. Owen is allergic to all nuts. She did not let him have a piece.
