Baylub had his first day of school... last month. In my defense for a late posting, I forgot I wanted to blog this and school didn't start until after labor day, so almost the second week of September and then our little co-op preschool group didn't start until a week after that, so he is just starting.
I have been looking forward to this for a long time and so has he. It is the first real structure we have had in our little family's schedule, which honestly helps me a lot with my days of just me motivating myself. It is hard to be accountable only to myself.
We were also looking forward to it so that we (mainly he) can make new friends (especially with other boys) and get a new back pack.
Here he is ready to go...
...and here he is walking right back inside.
School was at our house the first day, but he still loved it. It has taken a couple of weeks for him not to cry when school is over or when I pick him up. He feels confident now that he will get to go again.
While he's gone, we get girl time! It is so much fun to be with just my girls for a few hours. And Baylub gets his social time. He is doing so much better than I even anticipated, playing well, listening to his teachers, and just thoroughly enjoying himself. As a mom, I LOVE school!

love it! I was wondering how far he was going to get without shoes! ;) School is the best, isn't it? It's so fun to see them make new friends and strike out on their own. Yay for Caleb!
We are doing Joy School. We have 7 kids in our group. How many do you have? What program are you teaching? This week is my second week as the teacher....the twins are loving preschool too. I am looking forward to baby Jessie coming so I can have girl time when the boys are at school. Until then I am loving my alone time, which usually is spent at the grocery store.
fun, explain your school to me how it works? I am interested to know.
Oh how fun!!! I've thought about joy school. I'm excited to see how you like it etc...
