While the boys started back preschool several weeks ago, my reluctant-to-blog self never posted. So here's the overdue run-down.
Jackson started 4K and was over the moon excited to finally be the "big kids" at school. He was eager to be in Mrs. Kim's class and could hardly wait. He came home from school on day 1 explaining to me that "R-E-D spells red, Mom. Say R...E....D....that's how you spell red." I was thrilled about his enthusiasm since it has been like pulling teeth the get him to tell me what he learned at school in the past.
Weston's first day of school went pretty much like every other day of the past year has gone. He cried when he realized that I was leaving him at school, but within 30 seconds, the tears were dry and he was having a ball. Due to his extremely late birthday, we opted to keep him back so that he'd be one of the older ones in his grade rather than the youngest. {The grade-level cutoff is September 1 and having a mid-August birthday made him one of the youngest} So this year, Weston's in 1K, and has the same teachers & classroom, just new classmates :) Despite his initial clinginess, he had a great first day and was very puzzled during circle time when the counting stopped at 5 (instead of 20) and the songs were shortened for the newbies.
And sweet little Colton is looking forward to having his Mommy all to himself a few days a week.
