And They Spread Their Wings

Yes, the little 'birds' spread their wings this past week and started preschool. Mama's nest is empty...not really...but the girls successfully flew into preschool and their fun-filled days!!!



It all started with a parent-day, where Josh and I went to school with the girls. So it was a rush of 20 3-year-olds and all of the parents of those tots, bustling around the preschool classrooms. It was certainly a busy place, but the girls thought it was the best thing ever! Are you kidding me, new toys...toys coming out of their ears...and a motor room with a slide/climber...and a sensory room with a sand table and art...jeeze, why would they ever want to leave?!?!?!? Nevertheless, it was a great start to their school years.


A couple of days later it was time for the girls to go WITHOUT mom and dad...gulp! Well, Logan could hardly contain herself while sitting in the truck waiting for the teachers to come and get her from the car seat...legs kicking, squealing voice, "My school!!!" And Leah sat patiently for Miss Kate to come and take her out of her car seat and all was great! Out she went, walked with Miss Kate and Riley into school, and the day was underway WITHOUT mom and dad! Fortunately, as Logan walked up to the school door, she turned around and yelled, "Bye Mama" and gave the the ILY (I love You) sign in sign language! Ugh, my babies are big girls!





All reports are positive! Leah loved doing puzzles, Logan continued to love the pretend kitchen! And all the kids love Riley! Go figure!




Spreading their wings isn't so bad...a few big gulps from mom (no tears, I did good) and knowing that this is what life should be for our girls!!!
