First Day of Preschool

Today marked Simon's first day of preschool! With all of the other little ones at daycare going to preschool/regular school, Simon was feeling a little left out so we enrolled him mid-year in one of the local preschools. He has been talking about going non-stop and wearing his new backpack since he got it at Christmas. Even my crabby mood today didn't phase Simon - lesson to me, prepare the night before. I spent the morning racing about looking for a pair of mitts, writing Simon's name on everything and getting Miles ready to go. Total chaos but well worth it because Simon had a great day. He started painting 2 minutes after arriving, played outside (with his mismatched mitts), and came home smiling and asking about his next preschool day. I meant to get pictures of this milestone but I barely made it out of the door sane without adding a camera to my worries!

Edited to Add a Picture and a synopsis of the day sent by the preschool!

We were all happy to be back at school. We played and danced with the scarves. We enjoyed the different toys. We played outside in the snow.
