Today was the first day of school for mommy and emma! She was pumped this morning and ready to go. I dropped the girls off at mom and dads and gave Emma a "Yay Preschool" Elmo card. She wanted to put it in her bookback, which she is quite obsessed with. I left it up to my mom to drop her off and felt completely confident with that decision. I obviously had already met her teacher and there was no need for me to walk her in and delay the process any longer. She just needed to go on!
I was worried though that she may cry a little but my mom said the only tears shed were by Hannah, because she wanted to stay!! Emma's teacher had play doh all set out and ready so that was a great activity for Emma because she LOVES play doh.
It was nice for Hannah to have some one on one time with my mom too and all in all it was a great day. Emma brought home a paper with an E that she drew. She also said they went outside and that she met a friend named Max. She also said her teacher read "Brown Bear" which is their class mascot. I could not be happier seeing her excited about school.
Today was wonderful for me as I got to see the children I would be working this year - literally I will work with all of them. I saw some very nice families and helped escort some lost children this morning, but normally I would have my open library at that time. I was just helping out because it was the first day, but I really enjoyed being on the other side of the classroom door. Everything has been wonderful and I cannot complain one bit about my change so far. I was also thinking about what it would be like if Emma and Hannah were to come to this school and be in the same building as me and how wonderful that would be in a few years. This school year is going to be amazing. I am so thankful!
