First Day of School

Caden is going to preschool this year at Woodward Christian Academy. We were very excited to hear about their 3 year old program and hope that it provides him some structure, socialization and other things. We went a couple of times last week to check out his room, meet his teacher, and drop off supplies. He wasn't too eager last week, but got better about it the more we talked about it! I thought this morning would be bad because I was just supposed to drop him off, but he went in with no tears and didn't even look back at me while I was leaving! I was a little sad that he wasn't more sad, but also glad for him!

When we picked him up, we asked him all about it and he said it was fun! He also told us he got a turtle today, which we later found out was his reward. If he is good he gets a turtle, if he is really bad, he gets a black cloud. Caden said he didn't want to get a cloud because that meant that he was mean! He gets the point so far I guess! He told us that he got to play with toys and read stories. He also said he had to rest on the stage and that his teacher was mean because she made him rest! He just hates to slow down! All in all a great day! We will see if he wants to go back tomorrow!


Here are a few pics from this morning! He really liked his back pack and wanted to show it off!

My grandsons want a backpack with Spiderman or Buzz Lightyear on it and there is Caden with that orange and black thing - oh well, he'll wise up I suppose :)

If you think that my children will ever want to leave your house once they get to play on that awesome swingset you are crazy!!

How adorable! He is going to love it! I know it is a happy and sad time all together. I'll send you first day pics of Emilly and Matthew. Hey, we need to go to lunch sometime and share funny stories about our boys school experiences. Surely my kid isn't the only little stinker!
