PreSchool!

Austin and Logan had their first day of Preschool! Nonnie and I took them for their trial 1-hour run on Tuesday.


They jumped right in and started playing.
Then, they colored monkeys - how appropriate!
Logan spent some time in the mini-me book section reading a mini-book. How precious!


And Austin, ever the girl -charmer was busy helping in the kitchen!

The "real" first day was Thursday and Gary took them in that day. He said they went kickin' and screaming! Oh my heart!
But, their wonderfully sweet teacher, Miss Cindy happens to be one of Evan's friends mother who also happens to be our next door neighbor! Okay - that's not a coincidence! It's really one of the only reasons they're even in preschool! I have only left them with Daddy, Nonnie and one incredibly sweet lady, Miss Liz from my church. With each one of those - I get full blown minute by minute detail of what my babies do when I'm not around - we're talking, what they ate, what they said, if they fought (or rather WHO fought! lol), etc. And I can call whenever I need to if I miss the boys. So, I think the three hours away is harder on me than them!
Miss Cindy said they did fine after drop off. They get A+++ on their first day for being such good boys!

And thank you for your kind words on the 9/11 post...very cathartic to write.

Have a great weekend!

Oh Donna - They are just adorable. I love how cute they look in class. I'm sure they will adjust after a few times. I think any change is hard it's just that kids get to kick and scream and as adults we just have to deal with it.

How nice for you too to get some 'me' time now.

Awww Donna! It breaks my heart to think of them crying. I hope they continue to like it. They look like little social butterflies and so darn cute they both are.

Looks like they love preschool! What on earth do you do without them? Even though you miss them it has to be a good break anyway!
