First Day of Preschool

Elise and Owen started at a new preschool this past Tuesday.  We were all excited about it and the kids couldn't wait to get there.  I expected to have a little bit of time for transitioning and what not, but this was the easiest thing ever!!   They must have remembered how preschool works from when they went last year because they didn't skip a beat.  They went in so easily and were good and followed directions the entire time!  (I really need to figure out what they do at preschool that works so well because they sure don't follow MY directions).
Owen's teacher is Miss Nadja.  He loves her already.  He is in the 2's class and looks like he could eat his other classmates.  He is easily and by far the biggest kid in the class and bigger than most kids in Ellie's class as well.  He has been playing well says the teacher and has been going to the bathroom at school without issue.  (Again, why won't this work at home?)
Elise's teacher is Miss Carrie.  She was having a hard time remembering her name so I told her to think about how Miss Carrie rhymes with "scary".  Well, it worked but I think she sometimes slips and calls Miss Carrie, Miss Scary.  She loves preschool and is already considering her classmates as her best friends and doesn't know why mom isn't inviting them all to the house yet.

These must be the cutest preschoolers in Texas. Thanks for posting these photos so that I could enjoy the first day too.
