Little Man on Campus.

With all the chatter about school in our house lately, Reid could not wait until it was his turn to go to school ... and today was the day! Reid had his first day of Little Lambs, a program at our parish for little ones that precedes preschool. Because of his mid-October birthday, Reid missed the cut-off for the preschool program. Luke attended preschool at this same school, so Reid is very familiar with the building & routine. When we got out of the car, Reid made a beeline to the front door of the school ... no holding him back! We checked him in, took off his jacket and backpack, and very matter-of-factly, he said, "Ok, bye, Mom!" We chuckled at how eager he was to get started playing with those new toys!

Reid's first item of business at school ... checking out this playhouse!

At pick-up time, his teacher Miss Jean reported that he had a great morning! She did inquire if he was attending another preschool. Hmmm ... wonder why?! The reason being is that Reid told her that his "other" teacher says it's okay if he climbs up on the furniture!! Ha! And so Miss Jean quickly learned lesson #1 about Reid ... he likes to climb and he just might make up some tale so that his climbing is justified!

After school, we asked Reid how his day was. He reported they sang and played toys, and he made friends named Walter, Lucy, and Kate. Sounds like a pretty good first day of school...

Big brother was so proud of his little brother!
