It’s here and gone, the first day of school. I’ve got to say
both kids did amazing, and still are doing amazing. WAY better than I thought considering they have been
home with me with what seems like forever. Well, none of us shed a tear. It was
nothing but happy and exciting.
The kids started Mandarin Presbyterian
Preschool. Cooper is in a state funded pre-kindergarten program and Addison is
in the two year old preschool class. Cooper’s teacher, Mrs. Rockwell says he is
just the sweetest thing. It’s funny, I thought the first thing that Cooper
would tell me about his day would be the playground, but he hasn’t really
mentioned it. He talks about his friends, the kid scissors he gets to use and
the painting and coloring. I think he is really going to thrive in this
program. His class does ABC cooking, so for each letter they make a food, so for "B", they made Brown Bear Biscuits (lots of sugar) but this may be a huge break through for Cooper and his trying new foods, he may break out of his shell a little bit when he sees other kids trying new things. So far so good, its been easy like Apples, but when they get to something like "P" where its peas or pigs in a blanket, he may be challenged a bit! But he will most likely be starving, so desperate times call for desperate measures, right?! I'll keep you posted :)
Anyway, both of them love it…. And you know who else loves it??? MOM, I get
THREE whole hours to myself. Which entails running, cleaning, showering, running
errands and a little consulting work- (yes, all in 3 hours). It’s amazing what
you can do in a quiet house alone! But I have to admit, I do love the
afternoons more. I pick the kiddos up at lunch time, so we get to eat together
and still have all day to be together. I know I won’t have days like these for
long, so I am really trying to soak it up now!
Love
