Today was a big day at our house... Keaton's first dayof Preschool at Holy Apostles Preschool (http://www.holyapostlespreschool.com/). I have to say I was more nervous than he was. Only thing he said before we left the house was,"Don't leave me at the place,OK mommy!" Hmmmm..... With that I wasn't sure how things were going to go. Luckily the teachers were great and very experienced with this as she was at the door to take all the kids who were lined up to go into there rooms. She put his name tag on and and guided him in the door and off he went. No hug,no kiss, not even a look back. So much was happening I think he was overwhelmed and wasn't sure what was going on. All first timer moms and dads were asked to stay in the parish hall for the hour just in case things got hairy. This actually was a great experience as I got to meet lots of moms from his class and others with kids exactly Keaton's age. The hour passed quickly and It was time for pick up. Mrs. Staraton said he did a good job, he did have a crying moment once things settled down and he realized I wasn't right there. She said it wasn't long and he was singing,dancing, coloring and playing and had put those sad feelings aside. I asked Keaton if he liked preschool and he said " OH, Yeah, it was fun" and asked if he wanted to go next week he said "Sure do!" So I cross my fingers all goes well next week. Regular class hours start so well see what happens. My little man is growing up and it's hard to believe that he is as big as he is. I just have to treasure this time with my little men as it is going so quickly! I took some pictures with his bookbag on going to school so If I ever find the USB cable (it was in the fire) or get a new one I will post some pics. They are so cute.
