Second day at preschool !

Today when I dropped the little boys off at preschool.  They both jumped out of the car, like their brothers and sister before them....and like little pros, ran to the door and walked in unassisted.

Preschool orientation, ie. sitting on chairs while the kids sat at their "stations", ie. little tables and chairs with random things laid out on them to play with, didn't give me such a warm fuzzy.
Neither little boy would join the others and instead hovered near or on me.    No other child in their class stayed by their mom, but played unfazed.   (there are approx 15 kids in their class)
So that they (Ryan mainly) has gone 2 days now....hasn't cried....and has participated is HUGE people.  HUGE !

I approached Ms. Angela after class today and asked her how things were going.  You know. on day 2.  She said that they were doing great but that they can't sit by each other.   One of them hit the other one and they started fighting.   I asked her if they hit any of the other children to which she assured me that they didn't.  and I high fived them both for only hitting each other.  "way to go for only hitting your brother and not other kids guys."
Again...success stories at their finest.
She started to tell me that they were tracing really well and so on.    I didn't care.   They'll be fine.   As long as they are happy, going willingly and not hurting other children.  to me.  life is GOOD !
