Thomas Starts Preschool



Thomas started preschool this week.  Can our little boy really be that big?  I hesitated with sending him to preschool since I love having him home with me and the thought of having all my kids at school, except for Emily, was just too sad think about.  I realized though, that with Thomas' personality, he would really benefit from going away for a few hours each day where he would feel like he was a big boy with his own big boy responsibilities.  A friend of mine decided to teach preschool out of her home this year and so far it has been a perfect fit for Thomas to go there.  He has been talking about school nonstop since his first class on Tuesday.  Every night he asks if the next day he gets to go to school.  When I pick him us he always has a huge smile on his face.  I can already tell that preschool is going to be a great thing for Thomas.  With Hyrum and William being best buddies at school I sensed that Thomas was feeling a bit left out, but now he has his own big boy thing to do and life is great for everyone. Boy do I love my kiddos!

Don't they grow up too fast? I'm glad he's loving preschool! How is it with just 1 at home while he's gone? Miss you guys!

They are all just growing up so fast! It's fun to see them gain greater confidence and independence though, even though it is sad!
