Abigail attended her first day of preschool on Wednesday. We've been anticipating this day all summer (potty training) and were so proud to send her off to her first day of "real" school last week.
And true to the unspoken private school fashion, she rocked her name brand shoes.
Flash back to my SHS days for sure :)
She is attending Evergreen Academy here on the plateau and so far, she loves it!
I came to pick her up on Wednesday and started talking to the float teacher who told me Abigail had done great. She was engaged, happy, and agreeable (said yes to everything asked of her with a huge smile on her face). She even told me that Abigail was her new favorite :)
That meant so much to me, and I was grateful knowing she'd had such a positive first day.
I also learned that parents are to wait outside for their kids; it helps the children practice gathering their own backpacks and walking in a single file line outside.
Standing on the sidewalk, eager to see my little peanut, I heard her before I saw her:
"Mammaaaaa!!!" she eagerly greeted me as her tiny arms wrapped firmly around my leg.
And as we were getting in the car, she insisted on walking off the curb by herself "no I do, Mamma"
Little Miss Independant!
We celebrated her first day with lunch at Panera Bread before heading to the new house
(more on that soon!)
(more on that soon!)
Thinking deep, preschool thoughts :)
Aside from school on Friday, Abigail has asked to go every day- I'll assume that's a good sign!
I'll be sure to keep you posted as more blog worthy events occur (namely picture day and field trips) :)
