First day of preschool

Today was Jackson's first day of 4 year old preschool.  Earlier this summer he was very excited.  Even earlier this month he was very excited.  The past few days he's gotten very nervous.  Last night he even told me he didn't want to go to preschool. 

He's met his teacher Mrs. Lenth twice now.  He even has some friends from daycare in his class.  We talked about how it was okay to be nervous and I promised him he would have a good time.  He was fine this morning.  Karsten gave him a ride to preschool.  Jackson has mentioned riding the bus, but I don't think I'm quite ready for that.  I told him we'd talk about it later.

And of course, one with the little brother.  We've been talking about preschool so much lately I think Tristan would love to go.

Tristan and I picked Jackson up this morning from preschool and he had a great morning.  Relief!  I knew deep down he'd do fine, he's a pretty friendly kid and easy to get along with.  His buddy Wesley is NOT in his preschool class this year and this is okay.  Last year they tended to rely on each other quite a bit.  I'm pretty sure Wesley's mom is okay with them not being together as well.

Jackson will go Monday thru Thursday in the morning.  He's already excited to go back tomorrow.
