He started Preschool!!!

(I am taking advantage of the holiday to catch up on some posts!) Caed started preschool at the church after he turned 3. They were starting a new class called the Young 3s for kids who turned 3 by Jan, were potty-trained, and ready for an intro to preschool. We thought it was time for Caed to have a little more structure. I have been very thankful for Caed to have in home care with never more than 3 other kids, but this year, he is the oldest with Ms. Liz. The rest of the kids were girls with an infant, a one year old, and a just-turned two year old. He needed some interaction with kids his age and boys!!! The final indicator was when he came home talking about Hannah (M)Ontana! :-)

So Preschool it is! Patrick takes him to Preschool at 9:30. They have circle time with songs, centers, outside time on the playground, lunch and rest time. I pick him up at 3:30. He is loving it!!! There are a total of 7 kids in his class. They have music class 2 times a week and chapel one day. They do all sorts of fun crafts and games. It is really cool to see him respond well to the structure and activities, even though it's hard to think of him growing up. Here are some pics from his first day. The first is of him leaving our house. The second is his teacher walking him into his classroom. He was a little nervous the first couple of days but adjusted quickly.
