I started preschool the Wednesday after Labor Day. I am going to Sterling Park Baptist's "Mother's Day Out" program. Lots of mommy's friends sent their kids there, and they all turned out okay, so we thought we'd give it a whirl. I go every Wednesday and Friday from 9:30-1:30. My teachers are Mrs. Lisa and Mrs. Valerie. I like them a lot and I don't think it is just because they set out cars for me every time I come to class.
I was really excited to start school. The morning of the first day, I ran laps upstairs because I was so excited. As you know, I love to "go, go, go." Plus, I got to carry the new Lightning McQueen backpack Nana bought me, and heaven knows I just love that thing. When mommy and daddy took me to my class, it was pretty uneventful. Some of the kids were all about the drama, but not me. I waved goodbye and never looked back.
The second day was even better. Mommy came a couple minutes early to pick me up and you'll never guess who was with her! Gan (Gran) and Papa! I was so surprised. They came for a long visit and we had a football party! Gan brought homemade chex mix and rice krispies treats and my stomach only knows what else. It was madness. Absolute madness.
Thatcher,
ReplyDeleteSo proud of you for going to school like a big boy. You are going to have so much fun and make so many best friends that may be with you the rest of your life. Tell your mommy I am really proud of her too! It's hard to let you take that first step away from home. Tell Hadley that maybe some of your friends may have little sisters that she can someday go to school with. I guess mommy doesn't really want to think about that now. It's hard to believe that you are big enough to go to school. We are very proud of you.
Love you lots and lots,
Granna & JuJu DeBord
