What a day! After many days of dreaded anticipation, the day finally arrived. I didn't cry, and he didn't cry, so the day was a success! I cried two nights ago. I lay down with Buzzy most everynight. Two nights ago, he had already drifted off to sleep, and my tears began flowing and flowing and flowing. I guess it has left my system, because I didn't feel the urge at all today. When I took him to school, he went to his seat and began coloring. I told him I would see him afterwhile to which he answered "See ya in seven hours!" He looked up at me with those blues eyes and gave me a big smile. That was all I needed to walk out of there tear free!
When I picked him up, he was still smiling and anxious to tell me all about his day. The highlights included a trip around the school looking for the Gingerbread man, going to the gym, learning that he has to sit on his bottom on the slide at the playground, and having lunch with Cooper and Chase. He was hungry after school. His request was an oreo blizzard ASAP!
We went to eat supper tonight. While eating, he asked if we could go straight home so he could go to sleep. He and Henry were both in the bed and asleep at 9:00! That NEVER happens at this house. That could be the one highlight of going to school! Steve and I have enjoyed the early quiet the last two nights. Well, one day down, and I don't have a clue how many to go!

Henry was waiting on me when I got home! This put a smile on my unsure face!
All dressed up and ready to go!
His pencil box was waiting for him at his seat. He was excited to see his stuff there.
He wanted a snack before bedtime. When I went in to lay/lie (help me out English people) down with him, this is what I found. He was so sleepy, he didn't get to finish his cookies and milk.

I'm so proud of Buzzy. I knew he would like it, he is sooo eager to learn new things. I'm sure he will have days he doesn't want to go, but he usually has a good time wherever he is.
Congrats on making it through the first day.
Curious...where did you get the quilt? I really like the colors and pattern.
Looking for something to transition to when I move Macklan to his big boy bed...boohoo :(
What a great day. Buzzy is so smart and is sure to be the highlight of their class. I can't believe you held up that well. You'll have to give me tips in a couple of years.
Oh, I LOVE that Henry was waiting on you! That would have made it easier for me, too :)
Tate is starting preschool in September. I just haven't found the sadness yet, I'm excited! So, many things to look forward to...BUT I'm sure I'll be talking differently on the actual FIRST DAY..LOL
So glad Buzzy and his Momma had a good first day.He was pretty excited about the big day!!
