Preschool Here I Come

 

Yesterday was Levi's first day of preschool.  He was very excited and couldn't stop talking about taking his backpack.  He did very well, mommy had a hard time, but she did ok too.  I have a whole new respect for my preschool moms and how brave they were when leaving their 3 year olds with me.  It is hard and there were a few tears on my way home, but I know preschool will be so good for Levi.  I told him goodbye and he seemed ok with it.  The teacher said that about 5 minutes after I left, he was looking around for me and had a few tears when he realized I wasn't there.  She talked with him and he was soon playing with the other kids.  I was happy to hear this because his reaction shows good attachment, but he was also able to deal with it and join in with the other kids.  He was very happy to see me at the end of the day and tell me what he did. 

This morning he was just as excited to go.  He looked a little hesitant to see me leave, but then he gave me a hug and said "bye".  It looks like his class has about 8 or 9 kids right now and two teachers.  I'm looking forward to all the fun things we will be able to do throughout the year and seeing Levi grow and change.  He is a wonder to watch.

Howdy everyone, it was a beautiful fall day in Montana. The perfect mixture, a little cool, a little sun. We had a great time taking some pictures of Levi. When you're a cowboy there are a few rules:


#1: You have to have a good horse

#2: You have to take care of your horse and hand feed him if necessary


#3: You have to be able to tell a good yarn (with hand gestures)

#4: You have to be able to do a few tricks on your horse to impress the ladies.


#5: You have to look cool while riding your horse


#6: You definitely have to be able to say "YeeHaw!"
