You started school this week. This picture makes me think it could have been kindergarten, but it's just preschool. Your school requires you to go 5 days a week. They have a two hour/day orientation for the first two weeks for all new students...to help the little guys get used to the new setting. The first day we arrived you walked down the alley-way with me, promptly dropped my hand and made your way to the play area. You never looked back.
There were kids clinging to parents, and parents clinging to kids, but I was empty-handed in just a matter of seconds. Because there were so many moms standing around, I asked the teacher if we were expected to stay. She said no, but just to let you know I was leaving and would be back to get you later. I knew you didn't need me to do it, but as a formality, I tracked you down and did just that. You gave me one of those, "Oh, you're still here?" looks, but happily gave me a hug before I was on my way. That was it, you were acclimatized.
When I went to pick you up just two hours later, you had a hard time understanding why I had come to get you so soon.
You're growing up fast.
Love, Mom
