C5 - First Week of School

You are officially a preschooler. Last week was your orientation week and tomorrow starts your first day of full-time school. You're taking the transition pretty well though you've definitely had your sad moments. You've cried some and talked a lot about how much you miss me and daddy and how you think about us a lot. But you've also been having a lot of fun. Ella and Marcel are making this transition so much easier; on Friday when you kept crying when I tried to leave, Ella kept hugging and kissing you with a sad look on her face, in an attempt to make you feel better. It's so nice for me to know that you have such good friends to keep you company. High points so far:

1. Your favorite teacher is Linda (which is helped by the fact that she has the same name as your grandma!). Linda isn't your main class teacher, but you look forward to seeing her whenever she joins your class to help out.
2. Holly noted that you asked her: "Is it okay if I play with that?" about some toys on a table. She told you it wasn't necessary to ask, but appreciated your good manners.
3. Hazel's favorite color is red which made you smile against your will!
4. You really like sitting at the little table to eat your lunch.
5. You've already made a few friends.
6. Amazingly, you were the only 1 of the 5 new kids who napped on the first full-ish day! You got a little sad before nap -- exacerbated by Holly's empathy when she noted how scary it can be to sleep in a new strange place -- but then you crashed and were 1 of the last 3 to wake up!

I am so eager to watch you continue to get into the C5 groove.
