Caroline's FIRST Day of PRESCHOOL - Picking up time!

It was noon and Pick up Time for Caroline!
We were so excited to see and hear about her FIRST day of Preschool!

We rushed to her classroom to see her and she came running to me saying, "Mommy!"
I was so excited to see her...she was excited to see me...we had made it through her FIRST day!

She was all smiles along with the other kids in her class. Her teacher said that she did great! She did a great job asking to go to the potty and asking for help on the playground. Mrs. Sawyer said that when they were out on the playground that Caroline was riding on one of the tricycles and couldn't figure out how to get off. She called for Mrs. Sawyer to help and Mrs. Sawyer said all you have to do is swing your leg over like this...and Caroline said, "Oh, that's how you do it!" Mrs. Sawyer said it was so cute to see!

So we asked Caroline about her day and she said it was the best day! She had so much fun painting/coloring, playing on the playground, singing songs, listening to stories about the FIRST day of Preschool and Bible stories, and most of all her favorite part she says was playing with shaving cream on the table! She said that they were making circles in the shaving cream...it was definitely the highlight of her day!

We have been asking different questions throughout the day today and each time we seem to get more and more details about her day. I'm sure this will get harder as the years go by, especially her teenage years, but as parents that's our job right, to ask questions and stay involved in our kids lives. One of the cutest things that I've heard her say today was that they all walked out to the playground with "Bear Hugs & Fish Lips!" She then acted this out as she was telling us...it was the cutest thing! We did get this on video along with some other highlights of her special day. We hope to be able to put some of the video online for you all to see and experience soon. But for now, more pictures from our pickup from Caroline's FIRST day of Preschool!

Oh, and by the way, we asked where she would like to go for lunch and celebrate and Wendy's was the place of choice! A frosty of course was in order for her special day.

Enjoy!

Love,
Caroline's Mommy
