August 23rd - 1st Day of Preschool

Thursday was the first day of preschool for Zach.  Chris and I both took the morning off so we could take him and pick him up together.  Normally the teachers will be waiting outside for the kids but today they wanted the parents to walk them in and get them settled.  The first 5 minutes everyday they can play with items from the puzzle station.  Zach played for 1 minute and looked and Chris and I and said "When are you going to leave?"  There are 11 kids in his class, 9 boys and 2 girls.  Lillian, Carter, Monti, Deakon, Topher, Ayden, JJ, Trenton, Rory, Aurelia, and Zach.  When we picked him up, he was kind of a zombie so he must have been stimulated the whole time.  His favorite part was bouncing a basketball by shaking a big parachute outside.  We got an email from the teacher that he did wonderful and was a  great listener.  I took a ton of pictures (imagine that!), but it felt like a big day!  Chris and I are so proud of how brave Zach did.  I teared up only once when another little boy in the class started crying for his mom.
