To the moon and back...: September 2012

Wade is starting his first year of school this year, and I couldn't be more excited! And by excited, I mean: nervous, thrilled, scared, worried, happy, tearful, emotional, anxious, and eager. :) Wade is my oldest (as you know!) and everything with him has been unexpected. As with any first child, you walk blindly as you learn how to be a parent. With Henry, I felt more confident and felt like I knew what I was doing.

Anyway, Wade started preschool and I wasn't sure how he would react. When I started preschool, I cried every.single.day. The teacher would call my mom after she dropped me off to tell me that I was fine and playing with friends because my mom would leave upset because I was upset. I now have the ability to relate to my own Kindergarten parents when they drop off their precious child and leave him/her in my hands for the entire day. But, with Wade, he was **thankfully** not like his mother in this aspect. He LOVED and still loves preschool. I couldn't ask for a better start to his schooling. He was actually mad that next morning because I was getting to go to school and he had to take a day off (he only goes every other day).

Every day that he comes home from school, he sings me the new songs he's learned, show me his folder filled with crafts he made, and tells me all the funny things his teacher did. He is soaking it all up- and loving every minute!

So, here are some pics of his first day of school. Enjoy! :)
