Isabel's First Day of Preschool!

Well, I must say I was getting a little nervous for Isabel's first day of preschool.  We've talked it up for a while and she's gone back and forth between wanting to go to school, and still go to Pat's house.  And we're all a little "hung over" from the holidays, so that was another possible complication.  But I'm happy to report she did great!  She was happy to get to school in the morning, was cooperative with the pictures, and after getting her settled we said a nice tear-free goodbye!  I called about midday and her teacher said she was doing great.  She was a little quiet, but she was participating in all the activities (except didn't want to dance in the middle of circle time when her name was called!), and made her way around to lots of the different activities in the room.  

So I decided to pick the kids up an hour early, figuring that Isabel would have had a long day and would be happy to see me.  Um, no.  As soon as she saw my face in the door she said "I don't want to go!"  Then proceeded to run into the bathroom in the back of the school and close the door!  So funny!  While it took me some haggling to get her into the car, I  must say it was a good sign!!  So here's to a great first day at school!  To be continued...




Thanks Aunt Casey for the adorable outfit!

  2. I can't believe she is already off to preschool! She looks so proud! I'm glad the transition went well and hope it continues to go smoothly. Hopefully Miss Emma isn't missing her big sister too much!

  3. Thanks for sharing her special day with us Jenn! We've been thinking about her, wondering how it was going. You obviously did a great job preparing her for it.
