PRESCHOOL

Today was Spencer's first day of Preschool. He has been anticipating this day for quite sometime. He was so excited when he woke up. He kept clapping yelling, "I am SO EXCITED!"

It went as well as I could have ever hoped for. A lady lead us to Ms. Brenda and Ms. Emily's class while telling me not to worry if he cries. We got to the door and he trotted his cute little self right in the middle of the room still wearing his back pack. The lady looked at me and said, "Wow." I wasn't surprised. I knew he wouldn't cry. He was excited. However, we've come a long way from our days in VA when he would scream in the church or gym nursery, "Go get my Mama. Go get my Mama NOW!!!" Those ladies always came and got me saying they had tried it all but that he wanted ME. NOW. Thankfully we have jumped that hurdle.

I was better emotionally than I thought I would be. I know, no big deal its just two days a week for three hours, but it's my baby growing up! I got a little knot in my throat when I picked him up. Seeing him sit there in circle time. I was so proud of how great he did and what a great boy he is growing up to be.

Spencer comments after the first day...

Very first thing he says to me, "Mama I DID get to eat there!"

I have been telling him that he'll come home right before lunch to eat with me and Campbell and then take a nap. He keeps telling me that he wants to eat lunch there and stay a long long long time.

Other comments were about a big girl who cried, the roller he played with in the sand, cutting and choosing the green apple for me, the book about the doggies, getting to play with a huge farm and a girl who had a pull up shirt. I HAVE no clue what the "pull up" shirt is. He told me it had a string and flowers. I am so curious??? I love that he talks up a blue streak cause I get to hear all about those three hours!

Here's too every day at school going as well as the first!

After we picked up Spencer and pulled up in our driveway Campbell turns to Spencer then turns to me and let out a loud "AAAAHHHHH" with a huge grin on his face! Little brother was glad to have his big brother back!
