I can't believe the time has come. Our firstborn is offically a preschooler. And he was so ready, and so excited. When I asked him if he was nervous or scared about anything the night before, he immediately answered, "No!" When I asked him what he was most excited about going to preschool, he answered, "Making new friends." But what response I enjoyed the most was when I asked him if he wanted to make new friends that were girls or boys. Again, he answered instantly, saying, "I already have Ophia, Aubrey and Claire for girlfriends. No little boy should have more than that." !!!!! :) That's my boy.
When Aidan was at school that first morning, Gavin apparently laid on the floor in Grandma and Grandpa's foyer, occasionally looking up and sullenly asking, "Aidan? Aidan?" It was heartbreaking how much he missed his big brother! And while Aidan was very excited to go that first day, he also had a few sad times as he adjusted to his new setting. His complaints consisted of it "being too noisy and crowded there" to "missing me a lot" and the kids on the bus laughing at his sheepy pillow. :( But he is doing great now! And his teacher, Mrs. Knight, says he is very sweet and a helpful student every day. :)
I feel like I will blink, and we will be filling out college applications. But for now, I will enjoy the artwork he comes home with every day, and hearing him sing "Yes, Jesus Loves Me" to himself while on the potty. =o)
