CJ's Open House

Brian walking with CJ to school

It's a long walk for legs that short, but somehow we made it

"Mom, we're almost there, just take my picture" Moms can be soooo embarassing!

This morning was the Open House for CJ's Preschool. She did fantastic. During the morning announcements she was quiet and listened!! Who knew that could happen, but lightening doesn't strike twice. During free play she tried out all the fun stuff in the classroom, she met several of the other students. Circle time was difficult for CJ. She likes to be front and center and when they were initially sitting in the circle she didn't know where the front was. After Mrs. Reddy sat up front she was in the back. She kept getting up and trying to position herself up front between twin brothers. Mrs. Reddy had to tell CJ many, many times to sit still. Mom, I know you are reading this right now with a big smile that says, ha ha ha it's Theresa's turn now! When it was time to go she did NOT want to leave. Mrs. Waybright had to tell CJ that they had to get ready for another class. CJ was mostly ok with that. On our walk home we met another girl in her class that lives just on the next street over.





When I got home I called Kyle to tell him all about it. It's been an ongoing joke since CJ was born and I fell madly in love with her, that on her first day of school it was going to be me that has separation anxiety. So when I called Kyle I bragged that I didn't cry once. His response was, "That's because you didn't leave her". So then I called Becky to tell her the same thing, her response was, "Well you didn't leave her". I think they may have a point. Tuesday is going to be an emotional day for at least one person in this family.





CJ, your Mom and Dad are very proud of you. You are a strong smart girl, you are going to do excellent in school.
