Today was Blake's first day of pre-preschool. I call it "pre" preschool because he still has 2 more years before he'll start kindergarten at his brother's elementary school. Either way, it was a new experience for us because we decided to switch schools on him this year from our home church to a different church closer to our house.
Blake was really excited this morning, he kept telling his older brothers that he was going to his new school (I think they got tired of hearing that by the 50th time he told them). We also thought this was a good move because now he can differentiate between school and Sunday school - as his MMO (Moms Morning Out) classes and Sunday school classes were always in the same room, and that tended to irritate him a little that he didn't see his school friends during church services.
Anyway, some of his really good friends go here too - so that was really enticing and exciting for Blake. He couldn't get out of the car quickly enough this morning. I decided to walk him in on his first day so I could take these pictures, but the one thing I'm really looking forward to is their drop off policy. You literally drive up to the door, and the teachers' aides all come out and get them out of your car and take them to their classrooms - that's gonna be really nice on cold, snowy or rainy days!!!
So here's to my Tuesday/Thursday 4 hour kid-free mornings!

Blake was so excited to be in his friend Caleb's class. Here they are with their teacher Mrs. Debbie.
The early birds catch the worm! Blake and Caleb were the first ones to arrive - they got "write" to work practicing writing their names.
The class!
Scissor's anyone?
We even got a picture of Blake's buddy Jake. Jake is in the class 2 doors down from Blake's.

JEALOUS!!! That is the word I can describe how I am feeling right now of you ;). One because you get to start already. We don't start until next week. And it's on Tuesday and Thursday, optimal! And the drop off service, what?!! And their are some awesome classmates for Blake to have!!
Alright I am so happy for you and, please keep us posted. I want to hear all about it this year. And I am super excited for you to have your first two day a week am no kids year ;)!! Have fun! Love you, Shan
So glad it went well -- Ethan had his first day of pre pre school today also. We are free any Monday or Wed so please come over and play with us.
Jake loved his first day too. He's going to do great and Blake too. He said he saw Blake, so I wondered if they were on the playground at the same time. That would be so fun for them. I'm so glad that they are at the same school on the same day! Maybe I can play hookey sometime and we can hang out, or go shopping,or go eat at a restaurant that doesn't have it's own playground.....imagine the possibilities!!
Love ya.

Love Ya!
