When did Cole grow up so fast? It's still hard to believe he is settling into his pre-k classroom. I was way less nervous with Cole going off to school. Many of Sam's friends at Moorlands have siblings Cole's age and a few of them attend his preschool. I knew his best bud would be in his class and he would see some familiar faces too. Cole is also just so laid back.
Sam's preschool teacher retired last year so this year we found a new preschool for our little guy. It was my second choice when we were looking for Sam and I think it will be a good fit for Cole. I have heard wonderful things about it and many of the kids will feed into Moorlands with Cole for kindergarten.
The day Sam went to school Cole was really upset. Thinking he was nervous I sat him down to see what was up. Nope, not nervous, just upset that he couldn't start school earlier! Needless to say he was rearing to go for his first day. The first day was just an hour of meet the teacher but to him, it was the real deal and he considered it his first day of school. I made the mistake of calling his first full morning of school his first day and he quickly corrected me - "mom, it's my second day." Cole is so different than Sam - no nerves at all - after I drop him off he quickly gives me the 'you can go now mom' look. He's so independent!
Cole is having a wonderful time there and loves his teachers and friends. He is pretty tired by the end of the morning and is more than happy to come home with us for lunch. Eliza misses him terrible and always greets him with screams of joy and hugs when we pick him up.
I think it is so good for Cole to have this school experience. Already he enjoys being able to tell Sam about his day and what he did - I think it makes him feel so grown up!
Our sweet Cole is growing up!
