Caleb's First Day of School

Yesterday was not only Caleb's birthday, but was also his first day of preschool. He had so much fun meeting new friends and loves his teachers. Since it was his birthday, he got to bring cupcakes for his new classmates, and got to wear a crown all day, which he was so proud of. He loved it again today, and rode the school bus home for the first time. This was another exciting adventure that he had a blast doing.

As for mommy...well, I almost held it together yesterday. Could it have been that I only had 4 hours of sleep due to the "incessant mental noise" in my head (Eckart Tolle-ism that fits me all too well)? Maybe it was seeing him being pushed in his wheelchair by a little boy and the classroom aid. What really sent me over the edge, though, was seeing one of my friends who happens to be one of the strongest women I know, crying as she was dropping off her girls (I'm a total sympathy cryer). Or maybe I'm actually just a cry baby. I dropped him off again this morning, and no tears, so it's quickly getting better.

Cute little man! I'm so excited that he gets to do that. I'll bet he's tuckered out at the end of the day.

BTW, love the shirt!

Yeah, he gets pretty tuckered, but still doesn't like to take a nap.

Thanks for the compliment on the shirt. I know another pretty cool chick that happens to have the same one!
