Brian went to his first day of school today! The school that we will most likely enroll the boys in offered a sample hour of their pre school this morning. The school offers a pre school class for 3 year olds and 4 year olds. Since Brian will have turned 3 by September, if he is ready, he could go. Brian has a little back pack and Mommy has offered it to him to wear before but he wanted to part of it. Today however, he insisted on wearing it - even on our drive to the school!
The Principal met us at the door and took us to the class room, which happened to be the 4 year old room. Due to some sickness, there was only one other little boy here but Brian acted like he has been going to school for years! The teachers aid was the first person to come introduce herself. Brian promptly went over to her and gave her a hug. The teacher was the next person who we met - she also received a hug from Brian. He played with a variety of fun things at the "work stations" through out the room. Eventually we met the director of the Extended Care program.....she also got a hug from Brian.
The other little boy in the class was a little older than Brian but they still played together very well. They made a craft project (he's holding the rainbow fish he painted), took turns and shared the toys very nicely, and eventually picked up all the toys and books. The class ended with a story, a prayer and "the good bye song".
Mommy and Daddy will be encouraging the subject of using the potty much more frequently because if today is any indication, Brian is more than ready to go to school this fall!
