First Day of School

There was no crying as we dropped the boys off today for their first day of school. I’m not even sure they registered this day’s significance, as nothing we did was new. This day’s routines had already been established. We rise every day around 6:00 am, and every Sunday we shower, dress and eat breakfast together before early church. Sunday school has given them exposure to the classroom environment, and they had previously visited The Little House of Learning for an OMOMs’ play date. The Little House of Learning is not a day care; it is a prep-school for preschool, and our goal is for the boys to learn how to sit, listen and participate in group activities, sharing time and attention with the other children. After a few months practice here every Wednesday, they will be ready for preschool in the fall.
