Preschool

Gracie started preschool this week, and what new preschool experience would be complete without the customary picture by the door on the first day of school. The first day (Wednesday) was on open house day. Gracie and I went and met her teachers and found where the bathrooms were and filled out mounds of paperwork. Gracie was destitute when she had to leave. She actually got real tears in her eyes. She asked me if she could sleep over.

Today was the first day that I left her there on her own, and can I say I think my heart is breaking. She just isn't big enough to go to school. I know she was just born yesterday.

This is Sammy's reaction to his sister going to school. He wanted to go with her SO much! He is going to miss "Sissie." I should have taken a picture of my face because it was probably pretty much the same as Sammy's.

Next year Sammy.
