Alli's First Day of Preschool

Alli J. has been going to preschool now for 3 weeks and she LOVES it.  She was so excited to go and loves it each and every day.  The first day of preschool she didn't even eat her breakfast (and neither did I) because she was either too excited or too nervous (and so was I).  Alli walked right in to class and didn't look back :).  When I drove away I was having some feelings of remorse and was questioning if I/she was ready.  Then I got home, put the Lola's down for a nap and had 3.5 hrs to myself practically (Lola is pretty chill).  I never questioned it again (and after hearing that Alli loved it of course).   So for 2 days out of the week, Alli gets to learn and grow, play with playdough, read books, explore new things, and I get a chance to catch up on stuff at home without feeling guilty that I'm not playing enough with her.   



Alli's teacher is Miss Kathy and she is a very sweet lady.  Alli loves to learn and her favorite thing is to "play with the kids" of course.  When I ask her what she did at school, she always describes playing on the playground etc.  What does this mean in regards to her school work? :)  I can't believe how big she is getting-she is turning 3 in about 1 month!  Wow!  The J'ster is one spunky little girl who loves to run and play and just have a good ol' time.  

Alli's first day!

The school asked to have a "regular" sized backpack for the kids.  I was questioning whether that was such a good idea...its pretty big on Alli, but she loves to wear it! :)


Here is Miss Kathy with Alli.  Alli wasn't too interested in smiling for the camera she just did her "hurry up cheese face" because she just wanted to take off and go explore all the activities around.  That was when I knew she would be okay.

I'm excited for her to learn and grow, discover new things and meet new people.  So cheers to preschool and many more fun things to come!
