First Day of Preschool

The Big Boy ready for school

He was just a "little" excited

I love this picture of Paco walking EJ into school

Ready for the big day!

Mommy and her munchkins

Today, September 8th, is a very exciting day in our household. EJ started preschool today. He was up bright and early and very eager to get started with his day. I was a bit worried about how he would do, but he walked right into his classroom, found his name, sat down and started looking at the book his teacher gave him. Not a single tear! Paco and I gave him a kiss and a hug goodbye and then left him with his class. I think it was much easier on EJ than it was on me! It is unbelievable that my baby boy is old enough for school. I wish I could go back in time to those long days sitting in the NICU and show myself these pictures of a very happy, very healthy little boy starting off on a new adventure. I am getting ready to leave right now to go pick him up and take him to a special lunch--I would bet any amount of money he will pick McDonalds :). I will report in on how the day went!

Edited to note: He had a wonderful day today. No tears at all. He kept going on and on about all the fun things he did and what he is going to do the next day he goes. Sounds promising
