First Day of School

This week, my little man started preschool. It's one of the things I said I'd never do at this age... I've said that about several things, as I think most of us moms have! Nathan needed to be around other kids in a setting where he was away from me, where he could learn to play with a group, learn to trust another trustworthy adult, and where he could learn some great lessons in how to have fun without mommy by your side. Because I've stayed home with Nathan and have done so much play, tot school, etc right with him, he has a hard time playing without me by his side and we hoped preschool would help that. We're only a week in, and at two days a week, it's too hard to tell, but he is learning things already! The teacher told me Thursday that he'd learned which back packs go with which kiddos and what the kids names were. Considering the back packs are brought in, and hung on a wall and only used during diaper change, I was pretty impressed. Nothing gets by this little one! He also woke up this morning talking about Jonah being swallowed up by the big fish. Apparently Nathan enjoys the Bible teaching and pays attention! :) Enough talk, how about a picture or two of Nathan on his first day of school!!! (Notice Bailey staring out the window hoping to come too).

We're proud of you little man!!!
