Preschool

Lilly has started preschool and is loving it. She instantly made friends, which was my main concern, while we waited for class to start. I was afraid she was becoming shy, but it didn't affect her. She wasn't nervous at all to start school. In fact, when we went through the gate to go to her class room, she ran ahead and didn't even say goodbye to me. I'm not much of an emotional person, so I was fine. Plus, it's only for 2 hours, 4 days a week. I think I will be more emotional when she goes to all day school. I am just really excited for her to learn new things and have new experiences and make new friends. She has been going for a few weeks now and has the Pledge of Allegiance memorized. I love it when we get home and talk about what she did today and she gets really excited to tell me about something.

I can't believe she went to her first day of school with a missing tooth. She lost it a couple of weeks before school started. And she has two other loose ones. She is so excited to be such a big girl and goes around telling everyone that the dentist said she has the mouth of a 6 year old.
