Megan's First Day of School

Well the day has finally arrived. Today is Megan's first day of preschool. This morning we got up and took a bath, got dressed, ate breakfast and Megan immediately started asking if it was time to leave yet. Over and over and over - "Can we go to school now?" I finally told her we could leave when the clock said 8:40. Then I started getting updates every few minutes, "The clock says 8:06, the clock says 8:31..."

Finally the time came and we gathered together her million things to take - backpack, lunchbox, and napmat. She looked prepared for a weekend trip rather than a 5 1/2 hour day at preschool.



I had heard that the first day can be tramatizing and to expect tears. Not from my Megan. She posed for a quick pic and was off to color with the other kiddos. Katie and I will go to pick her up around 2:30 and I can not wait to hear how the day went.
