Asher has been soooo excited to go to school! Today was his big day and he just couldn't wait. Kevin left this afternoon for a work convention in Vegas. Since he was home I suggested we go out for lunch. We ate at Cafe Rio and Asher was so excited to get to school that he didn't even want to eat! He asked several times if we could just leave because he was ready for school :) We got home with just enough time to get his backpack, wash his face, and take some cute pictures (in fact they were so cute I just have to put lots of them on here!)
We all went in to drop him off. He was the first student there. He put his backpack away and looked for his chair with his name. Then Mrs. Raleigh gave him his name to trace with erasable markers. He just looked so pleased and happy to be there! Kev took a few pictures and as other kids started coming in we said our goodbyes and left.
Asher loves to learn and he loves to be around his 'friends'. He makes friends easily. He's going to have so much FUN! He also likes to show me his new skills. When he'd learn a new letter he would point it out to me on everything. And he's starting to recognize different words that start with the same letter. For example, just recently he asked "What does 'dolphin' start with? What does 'dad' start with? Then dad must be a dolphin!" I thought it was very cute :)
When I picked him up from preschool he didn't hesitate to show me his cute lamb that he colored and glued cotton balls on. Pam had put stickers on the kids that mentioned something the kids did well on. Asher's sticker said "Recognizes letters; Big Smiles". I hope this little boy of mine keeps that cute smile on his face always!
On our walk home he talked almost non stop about it with just a few questions from me. He told me his friend Zac was in his class and I had to remind him that it is Jack that is in his class (he gets so confused with those two friends/names!) He thought it was pretty cool that he got a snack at preschool, too. Ah kids, easy to please and so darn cute!!
