First Day of Preschool

Today was Wyatt's first day of preschool. He is in the 4's this year. The kids have to be 4 years old by Nov. 1 in order to be in the 4's so Wyatt will probably be one of the youngest kids in his class again this year since his birthday is in October.

Last year he went to school 2 days a week and this year he will go to school three days a week. It will be strange to have him gone so much this year. On Friday mornings we are going to be in a playgroup. So we have something going on four mornings every week! Our only free mornings are on Mondays this year!

It is so strange to go from having absolutely no outside structure to having somewhere to be 4 days a week. Since the twins were about 4 months old I have taken the kids out somewhere in the morning almost every single day barring illness. It helps break up the day and gives the kids something to look forward to besides the same old toys day in and day out. I can't help but think that our carefree days of hanging out with Mom and doing whatever are starting to slowly come to an end! How am I going to feel when they start kindergarten?

I forgot my camera this morning at preschool, so I used my friends camera to take a "first day of preschool" picture of Wyatt. As soon as she e-mails me the picture I will post it!
