First Days!

This week has been eventful! Cole had his first day back to pre-school. He's in the 3s class and is blessed to have his teacher from last year, Miss Sally, back this year as his teacher. I was a bit concered about how he'd do with Caleb not going with him -- but he popped out of the car, kissed me goodbye, and trotted in. He's doing really well.

Caleb had his first day of half-day Kindergarten today. After much prayer, turmoil and school visits, Todd and I decided in May to not send Caleb to kindergarten at public school. Lots of factors including how much he LOVES to play, his recently diagnosed vision problems, and school starting at 7:30 AM - YIKES! We found this wonderful kindergarten that is from 8:45 - 1. He has two super sweet teachers and 10 fellow students. Todd and I both fell immediatly in love with the school and are so grateful that there is such a perfect option for our family.








So... today was the first day. I asked him this morning how he was feeling about his first day. He thought a minute and replied, "Mommy, I think you and Daddy chose a really good school for me. I'm glad about that. I'm still going to have lots of time to play with you and my friends." That just made my day! Only to be topped by him chatting up a storm when I went to pick him up this afternoon. When asked how he liked school, he said "It's great! My room is great! My friends are great! My teachers are great! Everything is great, great, great!" As you can imagine, I am now great, too!!
