First Day of School!

Today was Caroline's first day at First Presbyterian Preschool! It was a "wade-in" day, which means that she only went for an hour and half. Usually she'll go for 3 hours. I was a little nervous when I dropped her off that she would be upset, but she just took her teacher's hand and walked right into her room without so much as a glance back at me!! When I went to pick her up, she was busy playing with a toy and looked happy as a clam. Her teacher said she didn't cry at all, played the whole time, and didn't attack any other children (always a good sign!). I was really proud of her, especially when I heard that all five of the other children in her class cried during drop off and afterwards.

Since it was her first day, of course I got a little snap-happy with the camera...

The hand-off.



Smiles all around during pick-up.

  1. Oh, I'm so glad it went well for her and no tears were shed by her...but you didn't mention how YOU handled it! Were you teary-eyed? Were you hovering? Did you enjoy the free time ??? Can't wait to see her. By the way, I LOVE the last photo!
