Henry's First Day of Preschool

Henry's first day of preschool was yesterday. He is attending the same school as he did last year but moved up to the 3-year old class. Last year he went two days - Tuesday and Thursday. This year he is going three days - Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday. We absolutely love the school, the teachers, and the other families. We feel so lucky to have chosen this preschool for Henry.

Henry had a really tough start of school last year. There were lots of tears shed at drop-off for the first couple of months. By the end of the year he absolutely loved it and had two best friends which he talked about ALL of the time! Luckily for us those two boys plus lots of his other classmates were moving up to the same 3-year old class.

Drop-off on the first day this year could not have gone any better. We walked in school with one of his friends. His mommy and I took pictures of the boys outside of the classroom and then they both went in without hesitation. Henry went right over to the box of trains, started playing, and did not look my way again! The teacher walked him out to the car yesterday afternoon and she said he was so well-behaved and incredibly happy all day long! :-)

He was even more excited after his second day. The teachers have already done some really cool games (like pretending the children were space ships) so I am really excited for the rest of the year!

Henry, you have grown and changed so much since this time last year! We are so very, very proud of our sweet, handsome Punkin' Head! :-)
