Last First Day of Preschool

Back-to-school time has never been one of Joel's favorites. He, for whatever reasons, doesn't really get too excited about going back. He gets a bit of anxiety and isn't always so sure that 2+ hours away from Mommy is a good idea! Thankfully, I've grown some pretty thick skin with my not-so-good-at-separating 2nd and 3rd children (Leah did the same thing when she started her first year of preschool).

Once I managed to peel him off of me and push him through the door, his wonderful teachers took over from there. As was the case last year, he was totally fine just minutes after I left. I know he loves it when he's there, but I think he also just LOVES being home...especially now that he's the only one there with me all day long! Anyhow, we will push through this (possibly with some serious bribery) and he'll be happily skipping through the doors in no time!

So we don't forget these moments....
