First day of preschool!

My baby is not a baby any longer. He had his first day of preschool last week, and he did SO well. I was really proud of him. Parents were able to go in the classrooms with the kids for about 30 minutes to help get them accustomed. We played at the sand table, with playdough, and painted. All of Aidan’s favorite things in the first 10 minutes! Eventually it was time for me to leave …*tear*… and he grabbed onto my leg and said “NO MOMMY.” He looked like he was going to cry, but one of the teachers came up to him and asked him if he wanted to play trains. That was the magic word. I walked out of the room and listened by the door. He couldn’t care less that I was gone. Success! He did really well, and when I picked him up, he immediately came in the house, took off all his clothes and his shoes, asked for some warm milk, Ben (his stuffed dog), and he asked in his sweetest voice, “Mommy, will you bring my bed downstairs?” He had a little rest on the couch, but not for long because then it was time for t-ball. I couldn’t believe he made it through all that with no nap.

Love this guy.

He was so proud to bring his big boy back pack that his Oma sent him.
