Well, we were able to get Big Sis into a preschool this year. They opened another class in our school district through Parents As Teachers (great program) this November. Big Sis has always loved learning and we figured we should nurture this while we can. At least preschool isn’t a high stress environment like high school. We told her she was going to start school and she was very excited.
She wanted a purple backpack and when shopping I was able to steer her interest away from the Barbie or Dora. We got her supplies and then it was just waiting for the day to come. Meet the teacher Day went very well she has her own cubby. She isn’t shy about being on her own and asked me if I was going to leave during Meet the Teacher Day. She was sure to tell Jeremy when he got home from work that she needs a backpack and coat to put in her cubby for school. The morning of the first day Big Sis was up dressed and ready w/ hair done by 7:10.
She is my early riser where Baby Girl always seems to sleep to the very last minute until we have to be somewhere. We still had to wait for another hour to leave. She occupied herself with playdoh still asking Jer if it was time about every 10 minutes. Jer drove her due to the weather, but her class is in the elementary school a few minute walk from our house.
The second day was a good day and she was able to walk with Jeremy. Then Baby Girl and I took a walk in the stroller to go get her. She already talks about being the line leader, the projects they get to do and the new kids she is meeting.
