I thought I would be teary eyed when I dropped Jordan off on his first day of kindergarten, but he was so excited that it was easy to send him off with a hug and kiss. Jordan has been in school for almost a month now & he is loving it. Jordan loves his teacher, is eager to go to school and comes home happy. That's a success in my book! Due to Lucas being in preschool, I signed Jordan up for the "Late Bird" program which means his schedule is 9:55 - 1:20. It has been working out well! Every Thursday Jordan goes to school at 7:55, and it is much easier (for all of us!) when he goes to school at 9:55. 7:55 is just too early :) It took some time for him to adjust to a schedule of going to school 5 days a week and no naps. Jordan just got homework for the first time yesterday - we shall see how it goes getting him to do the work. He loves to do numbers but dislikes coloring and writing. Since Lucas loves to do "school work", I think I'll print off some sheets for him to color on while I work with Jordan on his homework. We're in a new stage folks!! The era of homework has begun.
Lucas started preschool this year! This little one always wanted to stay at preschool with Jordan last year & he was so excited to go this year. I put him in the regular 3's class instead of the 2 1/2 & early 3's class It helps with the overall school schedule & he's only two months shy of 3. Eh. The biggest thing was that he had to be potty trained .. !!! He is not completely potty trained - he is still in process, but if he mostly stays dry between the hours of 9 - 11:30 during MWF, he's good! He just needs to work on telling someone he needs to go to the bathroom. Once he gets that down, he'll be fully potty trained. So yes, I feel like I am "sneaking" him into preschool when he's not 100% ptty trained ;) When I ask him if he likes preschool, he says "I like Jordan's kindergarten!" Slow it down little one. Enjoy learning new things and having fun in preschool. You are right where you are supposed to be :)
