Lynette's first day of Preschool!

My how the time flies. My baby girl's first day of preschool (in September). She still has two more years before she goes into Kindergarten but I felt like she needed a little more scheduled interaction with kids her age, and get used to taking direction from someone other than me. She loves it. Its two days a week, for only a couple hours but she gets to do art, singing time, play time, practice letters and writing. Its been a great experience for her.

She's in the purple bird class and adores her teacher. At her first parent-teacher conference I was told Lynette was doing great. She follows direction, plays well with others and meets all the milestones for her age. If there was any criticism to give, its that sometimes she takes a bit longer to get things done because she's so detailed oriented. Her teacher showed me Lynette's personal portrait and exclaimed "I mean look at this, she drew in holes in the ear and eyebrows. What 4-year-old draws eyebrows?!" She also told me "Lynette is the kind of kid that teachers go into teaching for." I couldn't help but feel proud at that. I'm also glad that she seems to behave well in class since she doesn't always do so at home...

She was super, super excited.



Trev kinda had a hard time without his pal at first, but he's adjusted well. Especially since he also gets to go to his own joyschool once a week at the same time....meaning 2 kid free hours for me!!!! Everybody wins.
