First Day of Preschool

Wow, I thought this summer that we had so much time before this day would be here! He is such a big boy now. I wonder how many times throughout his growing up that I will say that? Jackson wasn't too thrilled to go this Tuesday to orientation for an hour ( complete with crying, screaming and clinging to my leg... ). But today, the official first day, he did GREAT! Just walked in, and went right to playing. I think a lot of it had to do with Daddy being there. He looked a bit lonely, but I know that probably only lasted a moment. There are 7 boys and 3 girls in his class, the "Pigtails". His teacher is Ms. Karen and seems very laid back. I am a little nervous about getting a call about a pee-pee accident. I have all this free time and I want to stay home near the phone, just in case!! I miss him, but I know he is having fun. I have to admit, it is nice not being a walking dictionary or playing the "why" game. And it was nice to come home and play with Cooper and rock him to sleep. As I type this I keep expecting the door to burst open and hear "Hi, Mommy!" and a request for juice. Nope just a sleeping baby, and wonderful silence!
