Preschool day one

We are doing joy school again. This is Regan third year doing pre-school. He loves it. I love that this time around I have more Mom's doing it with me. So far we have three kids and three Moms. I teach once every other week, and Kaylee is excited that she gets her one on one Mom time back.

Regan is SO excited that he has school just for him and not for Kaylee. He really had a hard time not being able to do school with her (They did 2 years of joy school together.) when she went to kindergarten.

Last year he had a bit of separation anxiety right at drop off. This year he all but flew to the front door he was so excited! He is having lots of fun, and learning new things. Best part is he has a boy in his class with him this year. He is no longer out numbered by girls. I really think that is his favorite part about school so far.

 

First day of Kindergarten!

I wanted Kaylee's morning to be special and fun. Last night she was SO nervous she couldn't eat. I didn't want a hungry belly to ruin her first day of school. Jon thought I was silly, but went along with my wishes. He's cool like that.

Also we are looking on the bright side and happy that Jon has this week off for Dr. appointments and tests. It was so nice that he was able to go see her off on her first day.

I tried to bribe both Kaylee and Jon awake with her favorite breakfast. The house smelled so yummy and she gave me a happy tired clap before letting me know she just needed to snuggle more.

So I let the sleepy heads snuggle and wished I could join them.

Jon is less that pleased by his voice these days. Kaylee loved the song anyway.

As you can see we were at the Dr.'s getting more blood work done before taking Kaylee to school. And Kaylee's face in the photo kills me. Love this girl.

Regan was devastated that he didn't get to stay for school. He just wanted his sister. Getting in the van and leaving the school without her was hard for him.

Kaylee changed into one of her leotards when she got home and had a smoothie pop to help cool off before tackling her homework. She had an amazing day, and can't wait to go back.

"Mom, that was fun. Can I go back again?"

Meet the teacher day

meet the teacher day 001We went to meet Kaylee's teacher today. I had requested Mrs. Bringhurst because Kaylee really liked her from her screening day. I also herd good things about her from other parents. Mrs. B had Kaylee sit at a few different sized desks to see which would be a good fit. Kaylee will be getting the smallest size desk and chair WITH a book under her feet. Mrs. B told her she would grow into it, and probably be in the next size up for desk and chair by the end of the year. I just chuckled.

Kaylee is SO SO SO excited to be starting school TOMORROW!!!! Ahhhh, where did the time go?
