Boo's First Day of Preschool

What a difference a year makes! Today was Boo's first day of preschool and he was so excited. He woke up this morning talking about going to school. He wanted to ride the bus and wanted to go see his friend Alex from school last year. So, I had to gently break it to him that he wouldn't be riding a bus and Alex didn't go this school. I almost lost him after that. He started saying that he didn't want to school and that he had already learned something new. But, we quickly got back on track and he was ready to go.

He had a great day! I don't know what all he did because he keeps telling me that I already know. And I keep telling him that I wasn't there...so, I don't know. Ha!


It takes me 3 minutes to drive there! Woohoo! So, Bit and I will have 2 hours and 54 minutes to ourselves twice/week. Ha!

B-man had the day off after being in LA, so it was really nice for us to both play on the floor with Bit. I think that's the first time we've been able to do that with her.


Here are his pics from his first day.


So handsome!

New, bigger backpack is on the way.
I didn't order it in time, so he had to go with his one from last year, which I still love.

But, it's not big enough for all of his stuff.

We were early, so he played on the train outside of school for a few minutes.

And when I dropped him off he said, "Ok, bye Mom. I'll be at my new house later."

And that was it! He didn't roll around on the floor and cry like he did last year. He never looked back.

He had a great day!

He is so grown up now:( And a very handsome young man:). I know it broke your heart for him to be okay with you leaving him, even though that was what you had hoped for all last year! I am glad that you and Bman got to spend some time with Miss Bit too!
