Kruz-First day of preschool 8-05-09...Goes to preschool. Is it really that time? My Kruzie started preschool today. Yes it is preschool, but I don't feel sad yet. Well let me preface that...
I COULDN'T part with Kruz going to preschool this year. I just wasn't ready to let my little guy go. I love that I am a stay at home mom now, and I love my one-on-one time with Kruz. I wouldn't trade that for anything. So last Spring when everyone was talking about preschool and where they were putting their kids, I just couldn't wrap my head around it. I didn't want him to go. The girls were both going at this age, and I was READY for them to go. But not Kruz. Not Yet!! So I got lucky.
When we moved into this home just over 3 years ago I found a lady in my ward that would watch Kobi and Kruz for me a couple of days a week just until lunchtime while I was still working part-time. She was great. She took such wonderful care of my baby boy and Kobi (3 at the time) came home each day with the cutest things. It was a great year, and I hardly felt like I paid her enough. I was getting the way better end of the deal.
Well that was the last year she "watched kids." After that she started her own preschool out of her home. I knew she would do great. Which leads us to this year. She is doing an older class 3 days a week, but her 3 year old class, is just one day a week for 2 hours. PERFECT!!! I knew for sure, that was what I wanted for me, and for Kruz.
So today was it, the first day of preschool. I wasn't sad AT ALL. I could certainly handle 2 hours away from my cute little guy. He was thrilled to be going, and not sad at all to leave. YES, it was great.
Outside, just before we went in.
Kruz's friend Jex-they might be trouble together.
And what did I do during my break? I went over to the school and signed in for the first time as a "MOM" and volunteered in Kobi's classroom. It was great. I counted 6 teachers today that said "who are you here for today?" and I was so happy to say to them, "today I get to be mom."So here is to more Wednesdays being just "mom" in the classroom while all three kids are in school.

So you and Bryn both decided to send the boys to school this year?? So fun. He's a cutie and it'll be a perfect break for you. And you get to be a "mom" at school and not a "Mrs." too? Fantastic!
That's great that you get to be MOM in the girls classrooms. Maya - my youngest (who turns 5 in October) goes to preschool this year so I will have 3 mornings all to myself and hopefully I will be able to help in Madi and Max's class room too.
I'm glad Kruz had a great first day! I bet he LOVED it!! I love his little bag!
Is he enjoying going to pre school?
