First Day of Kindergarten and Preschool!

(ignore the fact that I am at least 15 posts behind because we are cutting in to post a happening now thing)

Today was the first day of kindergarten for Ben and preschool for Nick! Ben was super excited. He helped pack his lunch and set out his clothes the night before. There were not arguments this morning about getting ready. It was great! Nick was not so enthusiastic. He was excited about preschool but I don't think he really knew what it meant. Ben's drop off at before school care was easy peasy. No problem. Nick, not quite so easy. He got upset when I left and I had to sneak out. It sounds like he pulled himself together for the majority of the day but was upset again when Adam picked him up. He is also fighting a really nasty cold right now, so he's not quite himself. 

Ben is getting on the bus at Nick's preschool so I let him get on the bus by himself and met him getting off the bus at St. Rose. His bus was a little late, but he has at least 4 other kindergarten students on his bus. He's the first one picked up and dropped off, so that makes for a long bus ride. He did great, though! He got off the bus, gave me a quick hug and then followed the teacher's instructions. He got settled in his classroom very quickly, working on his coloring project and away I went. He had a good first day and is excited to go back tomorrow! We'll see what he says after his first school mass on Friday! ;o
