My pretty baby has his first official pre-school class this afternoon. I say “official” as this marks his entrance into the public school system. Until now the little man has either been at a private facility, home with me, or accompanying me to once a week ECFE classes. The big day would have been yesterday, but he had a school holiday before he even started. He’ll appreciate that when he’s older, but I think he was a bit disappointed. He’s already itching to get on the bus and get going…but I’m happy that we have a couple more hours together. Even though they’ll most likely be spent continuing the search for the mysteriously missing Toy Story 2 Leappad book (it’s got to be around here somewhere). Unfortunately I have to leave for work just before the little man departs. I’m thinking of leaving my camera behind…so that the husband can photograph the lad as he gets on the school bus for the first time. But something about that makes me even more sad that I’ll be missing this milestone.
