What a special day! Landon had his very first day of preschool! He was very excited when he woke up and had his backpack on and ready to go for about an hour before we left. I think you will see the excitement in his photos.
He was so excited, I couldn't even get him to stand normal in the pictures! We arrived at preschool a few minutes early and picked up his name tag and found the spot to hang his coat and backpack. Then he played for a few minutes in his room happily. Then came the moment, the dreaded moment. When I left him to go to a different room for my meeting, he had the saddest look on his face and was trying hard not to cry, but couldn't hold the tears back. It was so sad! I gave him a couple reassuring hugs and told him I would be back to get him. It was a very long hour and a half for me. I just kept telling myself that he was just fine having fun playing. After our meeting I went to pick him up (they had moved to the gym) and he came running towards me with the biggest smile on his face! The first words out of his mouth were, "I stopped crying, Mom!" He sure was having a blast in the gym.
I was happy that he was still very excited about school after the whole ordeal. So hopefully with each drop off he will get more and more used to it and forget all about being away from Mommy. I think this will be very good for him since he is so shy.
We took him out to lunch afterwards to Perkins where he could get his favorite meal-rainbow pancakes!
Love my little guy SO much and can't believe he is old enough for preschool!
