Starting Preschool

Conor had his first afternoon of preschool this week...a big milestone! We decided that he was ready for one afternoon a week until the summer holidays. In September, he will be going five afternoons a week. He was so excited for days beforehand. When the day arrived, he wanted to go after breakfast and didn’t want to wait until after lunch! At preschool he dived onto the toy cars and tractors and didn’t mind me leaving at all! Laura, the owner, offered me a tissue when she saw that I was a bit emotional and assured me that it was a normal reaction for parents, although usually in September!
When I collected him later he was tired, happy and looking forward to returning next week. My little baby is all grown up!

  2. It's great that he was so excited and dived straight in. At least you have him at home all Summer before the five day week he'll have in September.
