1st Day of Preschool

YES, you read correctly the title of this post is 1st Day of Preschool!! I know, how can Ethan be old enough to be starting preschool already! I feel the same way!! Anyways, he was SUPER excited to start. It really makes him feel all grown up and he started saying things like, "I can do that, I'm in preschool now."
We had a Meet the Teacher day 2 weeks ago and I was fortunately able to schedule that around my own conferences with my class at work.  I took this picture with TEARS rolling down my face. I couldn't believe our little preemie was walking up with his dad to preschool to meet a teacher!
 TEARS!
Then I missed out on Hello Day, where he played with all the new kids while dad went to meetings about everything at 5C's. It was my own first day of school that day. It was a hard day, excited for a new class, nervous for being back at school, and wishing I had more time at home. Life, I guess.

The BIG MORNING!! He was so excited! Here are all my favorite shots!



 Luke wanted to join in on the picture fun!


 Favorite one
I wish I could capture that smile and make sure that he is always that happy in life!
Dad took Ethan on the first day, another emotional morning for me, wishing I could be there!
 Ready to head in, back pack and all!
  
Meeting new friends already
 Getting settled in

  
Seriously, how is THAT my little boy! 

 
A collection of all my favorites of the day
  I am glad he is going to a faith based preschool so he can also learn more about God. The place is very new, very nice! We are so fortunate that our daycare lady's husband is retired and he drives Ethan to and from preschool everyday for us! Otherwise there is no way would we be able to take him. Not sure how other families make it work!
So, there it is. Ready or Not for me, my little boy is officially in Preschool!
