I am very late at getting this posted, but here it is. Elliot's first day of
Pre-K. We had NO crying and clinging to my legs like last year. I guess my boy is finally ready for school.
I was sure I had ruined it for good last week when I was knee deep in paper work for Iris and the phone rang. It was Elliot's school. I asked "Is Elliot sick?" her reply was "No, but he is still here!" I looked at the clock and I was 20 minutes late picking him up. Needless to say I felt like a very bad mother the rest of the day. Once we got to school he was in the office showing off his silly
banz. I was very relieved when I asked him if he was scared and he said "No, I knew you were
coming." Such a sweet little soul. Last year that little slip up would have cost us dearly.

Good for Elliott!!
ReplyDeleteMelissa,
ReplyDeleteI know how it feels to forget a kid. Just the other day I went home and 45 minutes later Melinda asked if I had picked up Payton our daughter. She was her usuall easy going self when I got there almost an hour late. Life is crazy with 6 kids. Tell Joel hi for me.
