Preschool....*tear*

I've been talking up preschool for the past few weeks and Mr. O has recently gotten super excited about it. Well, today was the big day and I honestly had no idea how he'd do. It was only orientation, but still, it was his first taste of school.

He was so excited when he got up that he didn't want to wait to leave. We finally got out the door, along with his folder, a picture for Mista Baaarb (Miss Barb), and a few, ok more than a few, pictures of his first day.

I love his preschool and am so happy with our decision. Seeing him there, playing, having fun, leaving with his teacher without so much as a "bye mommy" made me so proud of him, and I won't lie, it did break my heart at the same time.

Everything was going amazingly well until I went into his classroom to get him. He was playing and all of a sudden he looked up at me with this shocked face. I looked down in time to see a puddle forming on the ground. So we got through the day without tears, but we did have an accident. While I was helping him change in the bathroom, he said, "I didn't want to go pee in my pants. I didn't know the potty here though." Poor kid. He hasn't had an accident in forever and was just too scared or nervous to ask where the potty was.

All in all, I think it was a great day and ended with Owen crying to go back. A good sign for next week? Let's hope so!
