First day of pre-K!



Paul started his school career this morning with a bus and class orientation day (not the usual full 3 hours). I was able to go with him on the bus and to class. We met with his other classmates, his teachers, and saw his classroom. We also played outside on the playground and then rode the bus back home again. It was an action-packed 2 hours, let me tell you. Of course, it is always exciting when the bus breaks down (fortunately, before we got on it), but it didn't pick us up until almost 9 am, when we had been waiting outside for the bus since 8:15 am. Oh, well. Paul was very patient and we read a couple of stories, listened to the woodpecker next door, and watched the cars drive by on the street while we waited to get picked up.

Here Paul is sitting on the bus (Brian took the picture....he got to stay home with Henry, and then went to school when we got home).

Tomorrow is Paul's first day riding on the bus by himself, and going to a full (1/2) day of school. I will update again tomorrow or Friday!! Stay tuned fans.....same bat time, same bat channel!!

How exciting! I'll never forget the picture of all us lined up against the brick wall for the first day at Lake Street. I can't believe our kids are almost that age! (And I'm SO ready for Kasper to go back to preschool but we've got two weeks to go.)
