Today was Aly's first day of her new preschool. She was so excited to go, she told me a pink school bus is coming to pick her up. She wore her Anpanman backpack which grandma sent from Japan and she was ready to go. It's the same school Noah goes to (different class though) so she is familiar with the facility. We went to the class 10 minutes early and met the teacher and familiarized ourselves with the class room. Soon after her little classmates came in with their parent. All children are younger than 3, mostly two year olds and they are all adorable. Most of them speak very well and Aly will fit right in.
I was able to stay the entire class because Sean didn't have his Occupational Therapy today with Jessica. She gladly participated in activities, occasionally glancing at me sitting in the corner. She was a little reserved with her classmates, but she was studying them intently and I am sure she will soon warm up to them. She made a sheep with paper and cotton balls during the craft time. She liked playing with the sand table (rice was inside instead of sand), too. After the snack time, they all walked over to the motor room where they have trikes, trampoline and climbing structures. She had a lot of fun moving around in there. On the way back to the classroom, she held hands with two little girls. That was really cute.
She came home, very very proud. She was exclaiming that she went to school today. She will go again on Friday, so we'll see if she will be ok with me not being there.
