First Day of Preschool!

Hannah's first day at Parker School (not counting the eight days she spent at summer camp there in June) went off like a charm. She ran to greet the Director Matt at the front gate, was adept at putting her backpack away in her personal cubbie, and was quick to find the craft room (and painting easel). She was also super excited to reunite with her new BFF Katie whom she met over the summer (and with whom she immediately set off a giggle storm on the see saw boat), and make new friends, like Riley the Redhead, Sofia the stylish Euro-girl, and Kaija whose birthday party we attended back in June. Her teachers told me she even used the potty at school, which blew me away considering she'd only done that about three times at home! And based on how absolutely crabby she was when we did arrive home, I'm going to say the day was a total success. No broken bones or sprains, no complaints about school, a shirt covered in blue and green paint (she used blue, as usual, while Katie used green), and clearly exhaustion (3 hour nap still going!). Thanks Parker School for inviting us into your community!
