School Days

Well it's that time of year again for Madison.....school is back in session!! Today Maddy started the 4 year old preschool program at Messiah. She goes 4 days a week in the afternoon. Her best friend, Mallory (my daycare kiddo) will be attending with her. They have 11 other kids in their class this year, due to the school district offering free preschool, but we believe in the program at Messiah, so we decided to keep Madison there. With having smaller groups, she will get more 1 on 1, & we liked that fact and I know the teachers since Mallory's siblings went there.

Madison was so excited this morning she came upstairs at 6:30 am and asked if she could get dressed! I convinced her to crawl into our bed for a little bit longer. She was also excited because she got to take snack today & in preschool snack is a big deal!! She helped me make some cookies...so we might have cheated and used cookie dough...but they were a hit today!

Chad also took the day off, so he was able to be there for her first day! We got to school early so the kids got to play on the playground for a little bit. Tanner doesn't understand why he can't stay at school with sissy, I keep telling him next year he will get to go there (but I don't like to think about that, it means he is a big boy!). Madison had a great day and said she can't wait to go back tomorrow!!!

Tanner loves to play at the park!
