Today was Hailey's first day of preschool. She is attending The Growing Place at a nearby Presbyterian Church on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays from 9-11:30am. They have chapel on Mondays and Gym on Fridays. There is a field trip planned almost each month.
When we were eating breakfast she told me we had to get ready quick so I could take her out to her bus. I had to remind her (again, for the 10th time) that she didn't get to ride the bus until next year.
This year Mommy has to take her and pick her up.
She seemed fine with it, but can't wait until she can ride the bus!
We were not sure what to expect this morning when dropping her off, because she has always been a mommy's girl and didn't even like to be left for Sunday school until this last year. However, she did great at VBS this summer.
Justin and I were both very surprised when she walked in, hung up her bag and basically ignored us! We had to ask her to hug us goodbye!
Ready to go!
Riding to school. Can you tell she likes her bag? My mom made it for her.
Her name tag.
After class with her teacher aide Miss Angela, and teacher Ms. Linda.
After school she said she had a great day! She made art - a picture of our family, and a picture by gluing dried food. She sang Itsy Bitsy Spider, and was a good listener. They got to take the class turtle out of the aquarium! They even had goldfish and lemonade for snack! :) She said she didn't make a lot of friends today because she wanted to play by herself and see everything. I'm sure that will change soon! I cannot believe how excited she was and how smoothly it went! I pray she continues to enjoy school as she did today.
