Our little man is READY FOR SCHOOL!

So today Nicholas started preschool at Parma Preschool. He will be attending 2 days a week Tuesdays and Thursdays A.M. class. He was excited because he had a backpack and even got to take school supplies, crayons, glue, and Kleenex.
Here is a pic of him getting ready to leave.
When he came home he told me all about what he did today. I stayed home sick today...BUMMER. He said that he played with the toys and all the kids, he colored, was read to by his teacher Miss Linda, and even had a snack.
The great thing is that the preschool is just 2 houses behind us, so Rick will just have to walk him there, and walk him back when he is done. For the month of September they will be working on colors, week 1 RED, week 2 YELLOW, and week 3 BLUE. She has asked that the kids bring a toy for the week that is that color or wear that color for the week. They also have circle time where they get to share what they bring each day, a favorite toy, book etc, similar to SHOW and TELL. This teaches them to sit and listen while others are talking, respect for others, and patients to wait their turn. They also read stories in circle time.
Nicholas likes his teacher Miss Linda, and enjoyed reading time today. He said that was his favorite part today.
I am so excited that Nicholas now gets a chance to learn and grow with other kids his age, all while getting him ready for kindergarten. He will soon be a social butterfly. (not that he isn't already.)
Oh, and Rick, really enjoyed the peace and quiet. It gives him and Nicholas a chance to have some apart time. (they are so connected at the hip.) lol
