Milestone Thursday sassafras, you are a pre-schooler!!! How is this even possible? It seems like just yesterday we brought you home from the hospital and now you are going to school.
You woke bright and early this morning. 4:40 am. You even fell asleep at 7:30 last night. I was hoping you would sleep until 5:30, but no such luck.
We did our standard morning routine of hanging on the couch while I ate my oatmeal and drank my coffee while you watched tv and played with 'Peppa.' You wanted your breakfast a little earlier than normal, around 5:30. You ate an entire bowl of maple & brown sugar oatmeal and a glass of orange juice.
You played the morning away until we left for school at 8:50 am. All morning I talked about school, saying your teachers names (Mrs. Martha and Mrs. Kristy), talking about the friends you will make, playing, learning and snack time. You were excited! Not going to lie, I was nervous for you. I thought major water works were going to happen.
We got to school and you saw all the other children going in and you said, "School!" As soon as we walked into your classroom, you dropped your lunch box and ran straight to the play kitchen. While you played, I spoke with your teachers and put your things in your cubbie. You didn't even acknowledge your mommy. I went over to you, gave you a kiss and said 'bye' and out the door I went. No tears. No calling for me. Nothing.
As I drove past your window I could see your little pigtails with your hands in the air playing away. Made mommy's heart so happy.
As soon as 12 pm rolled around, I walked in your classroom and you were sitting on your chair at the table with your lunch box waiting. You had the biggest smile on your face when you saw me and said, "Mommy!!!" Your teacher said you did great! She also mentioned you were a great sharer. You made mommy so proud. You even colored a picture of an apple.
What a great first day you had sweet angel. I hope tomorrow will be as great!!! So so proud of you sweet girl.
OOXX
