both of my big girls started school today & it was a big success for all!
today marks eloise's first day ever of school! she is in preschool at the lee ann britain infant development center as a peer model. she attends 2 mornings per week- this is the class lucy was in last school year & this is the school i taught at prior to staying home with my babies. it is a truly outstanding program & i'm grateful our girls get to experience this school & staff.
lucy started pre-k at holy trinity this morning! this is where i attended preschool, and today marked the first day of many years of our future lives at this school. our girls will attend grade school here through the 8th grade- we are invested & we have been blown away by the holy trinity community. we put the girls at different schools this year in order to have them attend on the same days/times. if they were both at holy trinity, they would be either opposite days or morning vs. afternoon since they are just one grade apart. i had been super anxious about the quick time between drop-offs/pick-ups, but it could not have gone smoother this morning! it's a straight shot on the highway, and we're home in time for betsy girl to take her afternoon nap :) lucy attends mondays, wednesdays & fridays! i feel really lucky to still have the girls home on the same days :)
we dropped off lucy first- she was so brave & went right into her classroom, ready to make new friends & see what was for snack!
next, bea & i dropped off eloise. she barely looked back ;)
typically on wednesdays, i will be teaching a mommy & me dancing class for toddlers that betsy joins me for. dance doesn't begin until next week, so we took the morning to share a blueberry crumble at our favorite local coffee shop & stroll around the park :) i am not exaggerating when i say that at least every 5 minutes, betsy looked around super confused & asked, "eh-weeze? cici? are you?!?!?" this went on for over two hours ;)
we celebrated this exciting day at the choo-choo restaurant!
& just like that, we've entered our last year before full-time grade school begins! soaking it all up!
xoxo,
