The big day arrived. Elijah had his first day of pre-school. He was so excited to go and I was excited for him. We had parents night last Thursday evening....where the kids stayed with their teacher while the parents heard from the principal. This gave us a chance to meet his teacher and tell her a little bit about Elijah. I had mentioned to her that I was a little nervous about him going to school because he is an active boy with a strong will. After the meeting I asked her how it went and she had told me that she understood what I meant but she was completely enthusiastic about Elijah and promised that he was going to do just fine. So it was pretty exciting to hear that today he did great....and the teacher gave me a literal thumbs up. Elijah was really excited to get a "terrific" stamped on his hand. He can't wait to go back tomorrow and get another stamp. He is completely aware of the behavior chart on the wall and is very proud that he has been such a good boy. I hope this excitement never wears off.

he's gonna do great! and it sounds like he has an awesome teacher!!! what a cutie pot!
Yea for Elijah! Some days, I wish I had a stamp/sticker on my hand just to show that I made it through!
And I'm sure Elijah will do great at pre-school!
I completely understand about being a little stressed and worried about Elijah going to preschool. I feel the same way with Bella!! I had a chance to talk to Bella's new preschool teachers yesterday and was telling them the same thing about her.
I am so proud of Elijah! Way to go Elijah!! I know how exciting it is as a parent of an active and strong willed child when they do so well at school or events. It is also great when they have a teacher who embraces their personality.
BTW-Bella said she is going to marry Elijah when she is 21 yrs old! I don't know where she got that age, but I thought it was cute.
