Preschool

Things are starting to change around our little house in the desert. This past week my dear sweet first born started preschool. This was a very nerve racking and exciting day for us. Back in April when we found out she was going to be attending in the fall, I thought this would be a tear filled day. I was surprised to find out I was more excited than sad to see my little girl start such a big adventure.

I would not say she loves preschool. It is all a big adjustment for her, and she is not one for change. However, I know my little girl and she will warm up to the idea of being woken up in the morning, not getting to lounge in her jammies all morning, having to eat breakfast, and having to brush her hair and teeth.

Miss O's best friend also started preschool. They were supposed to be in the same class, but those two are just up to no good when they are together, so Lissa and I  requested they be separated.

We went to pick the kiddos up on that first day, and wanted to treat them to something nice.  You know, to make the day extra special. So, we took them to McDonalds for lunch. OMG what a mistake!! They were so worn out from their first day of school, that we had to drag them out of the place because of the meltdowns they were having! (mostly Miss O)

We will admit, it was a rookie mistake! When our babies start preschool we will know better. However, it makes the memories of their first day of school all the more memorable.
