Josh started his new school on June 4. Can we say “separation anxiety”!?!?!
No not Josh...ME! Even though he's been going to preschool since he was two, his Grandmother was a teacher there, it was only half days, and only three days a week. His new school is all day every day and he doesn't know anyone there and I don't "know" anyone there. I think he is was excited on his first day, but I was a mess! I don't know if it's my pregnancy hormones or what. Just before we left for vacation I took him for a few hours to meet his teachers and just hang out in his classroom for a while and I practically cried the entire time we were there....for NO reason. :-) Today I asked Greg to take him, because I just couldn't handle it. He said that Josh ran right in and started playing and was just fine. I only cried twice and managed to make it until 11:30 to call and check on him. The teacher said he was doing great and getting to know some of the other kids. They were doing Yoga when I called.....he was probably wondering what the heck is this!?! I couldn’t wait to hear all about it. When I asked about Yoga, he said “what is yoga?”. So I asked, did you exercise? Oh yes.
He has adjusted well and is happy in his new environment. He has structure all day, gets a two hour nap every day at the same time and is learning lots of new things. I know we made the right decision.
