Even though I've been waiting for this day for a while, it doesn't seem possible that it has finally arrived. My baby girl is now in preschool. Today was Kaycie's first day, and she was definitely excited and a bit nervous. She had no qualms when we got there. She got out of the van and walked right in the building like she's done it a bunch of times. (It probably didn't hurt that she saw big sister Janae do this all last year.)
When I picked her up later that morning, she was full of information on what she did at school - play outside, eat fish crackers at snack time, sing the Muffin Man song, play dress up in the toy room, paint, etc. It's kinda funny but at one point she wanted to know where her friends were. We've been calling her classmates her friends even though she hadn't met them yet, so now since she finally is in school she still isn't officially friends with everyone yet cuz she still learning to know them. I told her it will take a little bit before she knows everyone and is comfortable playing with them.
What did I do today you ask? Well, I first stopped by the drug store to pick up a prescription, then headed to the credit union to do some banking. I then went home and did some things on the computer and kept watching the clock as I guess I was afraid time would get away from me and I'd be late to leave to pick up Kaycie :o) Nothing overly exciting, but last night Kaycie told me that I could do laundry when she was at school :o) I don't think it has totally sunk in that this is going to be a normal routine thing - where I will have time three days a week where it's just me, but I do know that I'm going to enjoy whatever I do or don't do.
