Lucy started preschool a few weeks back on August 30th. The first day was extremely emotional for me. I hugged and kissed my baby while I was holding back my tears. She was trying to be strong by holding back her emotions as well. I think that is what made it hard for me. She was scared and nervous about her new preschool and I was nervous for her. Over the last weeks school was just ok. She would talk about some things she was doing and came home with a good sticker every day but the teacher would say that her favorite part of the day was the end of the day. Those were the most depressing words for me as mom and teacher. I wanted Lucy to LOVE school. Well, I think things just needed time. When I picked her up on Thursday she had the best day ever. She was even busy talking to a new friend while I was standing at the door to pick her up. Whew...
Lucy also started gymnastics. On the first day she did the beam and learned how to do a backwards somersault. She is eager to learn a cartwheel.
