Cale's First Day of Preschool!!!!


I cannot even believe my little man is old enough to wear a "real" backpack!!!

Sniff, Sniff


Where have the past four years gone??!!!


We had to have about seven different pep talks before actually going to preschool this morning...I made the day as special as I could for him and tried to get him excited! Admittedly, he told me he was more nervous than excited but he actually felt a bit better when I told him that all the other boys and girls in class would be feeling the same way.


But here he is...feeling confident at the moment...after enduring our last pep talk of the morning. He is READY!!!

We arrive at the school a little early so Cale can 'get his feet wet' so to speak....All the little caterpillars around the apple were made by all the kids in Cale's class the prior week when we had our orientation.



Cale found his name!!!




Unfortunately, the smiles did not last long...as soon as Mrs Z opened the door to begin class, the waterworks began. It was a rough go, but he made it through.

When I picked him up he was all smiles again and talking a mile a minute about all the fun things he did!


Let's see what Day 2 will bring......

He made it! Isn't it fun and rewarding helping them succeed and getting them through something that is hard for them and then seeing that it paid off and they loved it and did great! You did such an awesome job at helping Cale succeed at his first day of preschool!
