Thomas Goes To Preschool

We did it--and we both survived with few tears!!!

Thomas is home and likely snoring. That was one very exhausted 3.5 year old I help put in the car this afternoon. He is down for a nap and at last peek he was blinking hard!

Thomas will attend the preschool in the church where we have been attending for the past year and a half. He will go twice a week (Tuesdays & Thursdays) like Gracie did, 9am to 12noon.  He has two teachers: Ms. Tammy & Ms. Leslie, and there are 8 total kids in his class.

Day one seemed to go well, although he wasn't very talkative on the way home. I asked him about his day and the most I got was "I go preschool!!" and "playground!"  I am sure they did more in the three hours.

Thomas has been excited for weeks and we have be counting down the days until he started.  He of course is very unhappy he won't be riding a bus like his big sister, but a new back pack and a lunch box seem to be filling the void.

Another big step for Thomas and for mommy. You would have thought it would have been a piece of cake for child number two, but I have quickly realized that is never easy to let a child go, no matter what number he is.

You can see Thomas' preschool adventures and other adventures on our blog as I am trying to better keep up with it, but you will have to wait to see Gracie's first day of school picture--I am afraid she missed the first day of third grade (of which she is so upset!!) thanks to a 102 fever yesterday. We just couldn't get it down. Thankfully it was gone this morning and she was back to her chatty old self. We see no reason for her not to go to school tomorrow, so mommy gets to go through the emotions again.

Thank you all for  being apart of our days and our lives, and for sharing this moment with Thomas & me.
