First day of preschool

Today is James' first day of preschool. I think he is handling it better then I am. I almost lost it on the way to my car after dropping him off. Maybe I will be a preschool mom drop out, only time will tell.

He was really excited to get his lunch bag ready with me this morning, even carried it to the front door signaling he was ready to go. It didn't matter that it was too early to leave, he was ready to get out of the house.

And here is my little guy looking cute. This face means, Mommy why do you look so sad.

Now I have 4 hours and all I can do is check the clock to see if it is time to go pick him up. I miss my little guy, but I bet he is having a good time. I never though I would be one to say this, but they really do grow up way to fast.

Addendum: James did very well at preschool. He ate lunch and even took a nap. He also did a craft of hand prints and was very happy during play time. And for extra measure, here is a video of him this afternoon.

Paige, you have very skinny ankles for a pregnant lady! You can see them on the video. James is adorable.

That is really cute. I like the part where he shows you his tongue. I miss him! Too bad he and Eli couldn't be Mommmy's Day Out partners!
