Preschool

Leila started up preschool again.  Last year it was just joy school that a couple of us moms did but this year she goes to an actual preschool.  Leila tends to get really worked up about new things, she is really excited but sometimes the fear of the unknown just overwhelms her.  We went to orientation the week before school started and Leila was very excited, she got to meet the kids in her class, her teacher and see her classroom.  She kept talking about preschool and how she couldn't wait to go until the morning of.  I tried not to talk to much about it but she told Paul that she was really nervous.  We got all ready and right before we needed to leave she began to have a melt down.  I tried to get her picture but she was in a complete crying fit.  You will see in the pictures below we eventually got her calm and excited.  When we got to school the teacher and most of the other kids were outside gathering before the headed inside.  Leila ran right over and joined the class and didn't even look back.  The first day Leila wouldn't say much about school, just that she had fun.  But since then she comes home and tells me who she sat by, what snack they had, who was the class leader and what they did.  She loves it and loves having Miss Joy for her teacher.  Its so fun to watch her learn new things and then come home and have her tell me all about it or teach me the things she has learned.
