First Day of School... again...

Monday morning... Brayden started preschool at a new school. We wanted a different school next year... for several reasons... some found here... but moving him midyear was the only way to guarantee him a spot in this school as they have a very long waiting list.
I'm so pleased with the school. They have strong academics where the kids learn science, spanish, and music. They sing Bible songs and hear Bible stories everyday. They have "exercise" class. And they go until 2:00pm ;)


We were dreading the first day.... It was going to be rough. Brayden had informed us that he didn't need new friends. He was just fine with his current ones. The deal was that if he didn't have fun, he didn't have to go back.

So how was the initial first drop off? It was emotional.. It was sad... it was dreadful... It was teary... it was lonely... it was unexpected... it was heartbreaking... But enough about me... ;),

Brayden walked right in and said, "mom I'll be fine. I'm gonna play with these trucks"

I don't know why it was so hard for me this time... This is his second year of preschool and both of the "first days" weren't this hard... Something about him starting by himself in the middle of the year was harder for me... Like all the other kids would be friends, he would be lonely, was I doing the right thing?, etc, etc...

The first day result? HE LOVED IT.... and can't wait until tomorrow!!!








Yes, I was pathetic and a basket case... so thankful that Tony was there...
