Tuesday (the 4th)was Jackson's first day of preschool. To say the least, it was quite an event! First of all, Brent took the day off so he could help out and then Brent's dad came over that morning to help with the forest in our backyard (pictures of that to come later...) so he came along for the ride. Ever since Jackson has known what school was, he has wanted to go, but it still came as no shock when he started having a meltdown in Miss Jenn's driveway and ran back to the truck at least 3 times...across the street and everything!!! So while I'm spending 20 minutes trying to comfort him and convince him that school will be fun, he's got a death grip on me and is sobbing his little heart out, which of course starts my tears!!! His poor teacher probably thought I was completely mental!!! After 20 minutes of him crying (although we HAD gotten him up to the room by this time), his WONDERFUL teacher came over and took him and told me to leave. So I did. And 3 hours later when we came to pick him up (yes, the whole entourage), Miss Jenn said that he had been wonderful (only crying for 5 minutes or so after I left). Jackson said that he had had lots of fun... and was willing to go back again. Although as I am typing this, Brent told him that he needs to go to bed cuz he has school tomorrow and he has decided that once was enough for him. Poor guy, he's got 14 more years to go!!!
