First day of School!

Still a little sleepy but ready to go to school!

Getting escorted through the parking lot by two lovely ladies:)

Jumping right into the fun!

Warren started preschool this past Tuesday! He will go on Tuesdays and Thursday from 9 to 12. When we arrived he went right into his classroom and didn't even bother to tell me good bye. They have the parents stay out in the hallway - I think this helps prevent long goodbyes. So I tried to take a picture from there of my little man going to school for the first time (sniff, sniff). When I picked him up, he was on the playground and seemed to be doing ok. But when he saw me he started crying. His teacher said it's because they remember "Oh, that's right, you left me here". So we got in the car, had some lunch and everything was back to normal.

Later that evening, we took Macie for a wagon ride. At one point Warren was sitting in the wagon with her and said "May may, hand" and took and held her hand. He then said "mommy, hand" and took my hand. So we all three went down the driveway holding hands. I guess he learned this at school. I wish I could be a fly on the wall and see what they're doing:)

Now on to day 2 - not so great:( When we pulled into the parking lot, he was really excited. And even walking up to his classroom he was still excited. But when he walked in and I stepped back, that's went things went south very fast! Plus it didn't help that there were about three other kids already in the classroom having meltdowns as well. But his teacher Ms. Marlie just took him and closed the door (which I know that is what is best). So I made the mistake of looking through the little window to check on him. He was still pretty upset and calling for me. So of course then I start getting teary eyed in the hallway. I find it humours that I was surrounded by 2 to 4 years olds who were able to compose themselves better than I could:)

So we left, and returned promptly at noon. Same thing - he seemed to be doing ok until he saw me. Ms. Marlie said he was a little weeping off and on but considering it was only the second day, he was doing fine. I was excited to see some of the fun stuff he had been working on. He had a picture with some stamps done in red ink and a cool hat decorated in fall leaves. He tried sharing his hat with Macie:)

So wish us luck for the weeks to come! I'm sure he'll eventually come to love it and be excited on the days he gets to go:)
