Audrey's First Day of Preschool

Friday was Audrey's first day of preschool. She's growing up so fast! We've been looking forward to her preschool starting for some time now. It wasn't till she actually went till she understood why we were so excited for her. She had a TON of fun. You can tell by all the loot she brought home: a headband she decorated, a tracing page of her name and an Expo pen to practice with, a file folder game (laminated and everything), a schoolhouse picture/calendar, and some Bio Dough (it's like Gak). Anyway, she can hardly wait to go back!!



I thought I'd mention how excited I am for preschool. Not only will I get a slight break twice a week, but Audrey will have a creative outlet for her energy that she can call her own. She has desperately needed this for some time now, so I'm thrilled. Also, they invited one parent to come on the first day to get a better idea of what they signed up for. It's at the high school, and it's part of their child development program. So that means that there's the 1 normal adult teacher, and then about 8 high school teachers/students (which means it's about a 2:1 ratio- yeah!). It also means that the district pays the main teacher, so most of the money we pay (which is the cheapest preschool I found too) goes to awesome supplies! I was very impressed when we went and am so glad that Audrey will be a part of this. Woohoo!

That's awesome. We've been enjoying the break with Kaia being at Kindergarten, I just wish it wasn't so back and forth with picking her up. Looks like she's in a good school though. Hope it works out really well.
