My big girl started Preschool! Day one started off pretty rough...the morning was a battle and not because she didn't want to go because she didn't really know what was happening. I don't know what the problem was but everything we did was wrong. Wrong breakfast, wrong clothes, wrong EVERYTHING! We finally got out the door just in time as I quickly tried to get the cute "first day of school picture of my child standing by the door with her backpack on and big smile on her face" but clearly that was not happening! Instead I got a "I'm going to throw a tantrum because I am tired, hungry, and don't want this thing on my back!" Oh well...maybe next year!
We dropped her off and she went in with no problem. I think it helps that her class is the same room that they use for the church nursery so she is used to it. She just had no idea that she would be there for 4 hours instead of just one! I, on the other hand, was a little misty-eyed. I didn't cry but it was very strange! I remember saying "Now what do I do??"
Pick up was so exciting! She was so happy to see us and was in the BEST mood ever! Total 180 from the morning. I guess she likes school!
Waiting to pick up my big sissy from school!
Day 2...not much better but progress!
