Pre-school.

Today was a BIG day.

Adler attended his first day of pre-school.

Luke & I really can't believe it.

We made last night a 'special night'.

The night before his 'special day'.

He got to bike around the lake

ON HIS OWN BIKE.

(that's over 4 miles & he loved every bit of it!).

We were so proud of him!

He's already showing us what a big boy he's becoming.

Then after the long bike ride

we went to the local dollar store

so he could pick his favorite candy

(because remember, it was a special night).

Of course he picked a sucker!

Then night time came & I talked to him about preschool

& we even had a prayer just for school &

as we were praying all I could think about

was the day he was born

& how that day does not seem long ago,

but my baby is now in school,

so YES, time goes by so fast.

It was kind of sad to think about... 

But then it was morning & he was ready to go.

Dad stayed home to make him Mickey pancakes

& he grabbed his backpack & we were off.

p.s. he wanted to wear his Vikings jacket.

I cringed, but he loved it and I guess it is football season!!!

He wanted to wear his john deere shirt on his first day,

but thank goodness he already wore ALL of them this week,

so they were dirty.

Instead mom got to pick his outfit & the first day he was supposed

to wear his favorite color : RED.



Finding his name & hanging up his backpack.

(Lightening McQueen of course!)

When we dropped him off no tears were shed,

except from his little sidekick.

He cried a lot!

I felt so bad for him.

But we were headed to the Y & he was going to have to play

without his brother.

That did not go well either.

He cried a lot!

It's been a heck of a day for Brock

& I think Adler liked his change.

(except when Brock & I picked him up the only thing he

said about school was that he was hot & he wanted to go home!)
