What I Learned at School Today

Miles did great on his first day of school, not a tear to be found. I was so relieved! Today was my first day working there and I really enjoyed it. I wasn't sure I would, but I found it totally relaxing. I got to hang out and play in the sandbox while kids came and went. I helped make tracks for their trucks, hid "jewels" for them to dig up and discover and helped wash their little hands at the end of it all. It was nice to be able to just focus on playing, not cleaning, laundry or cooking. I'm going to try to take that lesson home with me.

Ist Day of Preschool!

I dropped Miles off at preschool this morning and left him there for the 1st time. You may recall a previous post of the same kind about a year ago. I sent him when he when he was around 20 months but it was too tough for both of us and I decided to wait until he got a little older. This time his cousin Remi is there with him and it's a co-op so I will be working there one day and his aunt Jen will be working there another day so that makes me feel much more comfortable. That said, my chest has been tight since I left him and I keep looking at the clock to see if it isn't finally time to go pick him up.
