<But first - I'm being featured over at Johannah's blog today, head over there if you want to read a little bit about me :) >
Avery was the first to start preschool because she goes Tues/Thurs and her first day was the day after Labor Day.
Girlfriend was SO excited to go! I knew she would be my kid who had no attachment issues, what I didn't know is how sad that would make me feel!
We got up that day and had our normal routine (Brayden had already been in school for a week at this point) We went outside for the official "first day of school" pics and then we were off
Once we got to school Avery was SO excited to do her routine of pushing the handicap door button and then proceeding to wash her hands in the bathroom. She knew all of this from taking big sis last year.
Brayden was home sick this day with strep throat so he got to come with to drop her off |
We then waited for her teachers to open the door and once they did, Avery walked right in! Literally, she didn't even stop to say bye to me (or her siblings) and when I was yelling her name to say bye she WOULDN'T EVEN TURN AROUND TO LOOK AT ME! This kid, I swear. I stood there a little in shock that she wouldn't even say bye to me and then I got a little sad. But that was it, we left and I knew she would be fine which is a welcomed feeling since the other 2 had some separation issues.
When we picked her up she was grinning ear to ear! I knew she had alot of fun (and I'm sure gave her teachers a run for their money, haha)
I can't believe my BABY is in preschool - it's still a hard pill to swallow, but I know this year is going to be great for her!

So cute - she looks so excited in all of these photos too! It helps to know they are so excited but it's bittersweet for sure! xoxo ERIN
ReplyDeleteI love all the smiles! That had to be bittersweet. I am so glad she is so confident and was not sad about school. I also love that she knew the routine, how cute!
ReplyDeletePreschool already?! She is such a little independent girl. My two also have some separation issues, mainly A, oh man yesterday's drop off was rough. So maybe there's hope for a third that is like, mom, I got this?! Lol jk. Can't wait to head over to Johannah's blog to check out your post! Beautifully Candid
ReplyDeleteThat girl!! She sounds so much like Olivia! Just eager for whatever's next and not afraid of much! I can't believe that your littlest baby is in Pre-K already. Goodness gracious.
ReplyDeleteSo cute that she didn't want to say goodbye. She sounds a bit like my 3rd child! I guess that's what happens when you're the youngest!
ReplyDeleteI'm soooo glad Avery had a great first day! She is so adorable!
ReplyDeleteAwww, I bet she loves it and feels like such a big kid! I hope she has a great year!
ReplyDeleteIsn't it so sad when they just walk away like that? Breaks my heart every stinking time. So glad she is loving school.
ReplyDeleteI would have been sad too. It breaks my heart to leave my girls daily. I can't believe all of your kids are in school now!
ReplyDeleteI love her excitement! I hope that continues through all of her school days. She’s so big to just walk right in! Hugs mama. I know that’s so bittersweet.
