Today was Rachel's big day - her first day at The Learning Tree preschool. She has been so very excited to go. When I had returned from taking Noah to school she had already dressed herself in the clothes I had set out for her last night and she was ready for me to fix her hair and eat breakfast. It was cute to see how truly excited she was. The only way she showed any signs of worry was right before bed last night, when I was tucking her in, she aske me "Mommy, what if I have to go potty at school?" Doug and I assured her that her teacher would show her where the potty was and that if she needed to go, she should just ask. (We were both relieved to see a little bathroom in her classroom this morning - no worries of getting lost or not making it.) After getting ready, she ate a little breakfast and we were off - of course not before a quick snap of the camera from mom. Upon arriving at school she jumped out of the car, grabbed my hand and marched right in. While waiting in the hallway to sign in she had a little guy named Julian shake her hand and tell her 'hello'. It was pretty cute. Audrey, her friend from gymnastics arrived shortly there after and we got the girls settled at the table together where there was a ball of play-doh for each child to play with. We then met her teacher Ms. Kim, and after Rachel gave me a kiss and a hug, I was on my way. It is strangely quiet at the house right now. I miss her sweet face and smile, but I know that she is having fun and learning and I look forward to hearing all about it when we pick her up. Exciting times for our sweet girl. =)
