Thomas Goes To School
I know, I know--I am not supposed to be driving, or doing stairs; but today's weather/school delay left me without much choice.
Thomas and I took our time and went and picked Gracie up from school today at 3pm. I waited patiently in the car until most of the parents had gotten in and were on their way out. Those kids are adorable and great, but they are also full of germs!
I was the last one in the door and Gracie's teacher Ms. Stephanie scolded me for being out. But, she also took my little tons of fun and held his carrier while I waited to sign Gracie out and get her things, and that was a much needed relief. I haven't walked much since we got home, and the trip out this morning to the doctor and then back down the stairs and the drive to the preschool took a little toll on me. I took my time though, and Ms. Stephanie guarded Thomas like a sacred jewel. She let the kids peek at him through the very small hole that is in the carrier cover, but made them stay back several feet.
Gracie was thrilled that Thomas came with me to pick her up, and she told me "I think everyone likes Thomas!" Her teachers got a good peek and so did some of the kids. I also made sure that they knew just how much I appreciated them taking such good care of Gracie while I was out of commission, and making her feel so special! I don't think I blogged that Gracie took pictures that Grandma got developed at Walmart to school the Wednesday after he was born. The teachers let her have a mini show and tell, and she got to share the pictures and tell all about her new baby brother. The staff at that school is a Godsend, and I am so glad she has such caring teachers. If we are still in Strasburg then, Thomas will be in their class in 3 years!
If it hadn't been so cold and windy I would have snapped a picture of Gracie and Thomas outside the school. I guess I will have to do that another time :)
As for school, Gracie loved seeing her friends in the afternoon class. They made a stamped picture with balloons, and they had a fun movement activity. Poor Gracie is so tired she didn't tell me much about the day at all. She is in bed and will hopefully fall asleep for her naptime!
