Audrey's First Day of Preschool 2012

Audrey began her last year of preschool today. She's in the 4's class that meets three times a week. Same as last year. The other option would have been  to go five days a week, and honestly, even though it's a great program, I just didn't think we needed to do that. She will spend the her entire school career going five days a week. Why rush it? Although, she and another little boy are the only ones who didn't "move up". All the other kids from last year are in Pre-k. Bummer. 

Audrey's teacher last year told me she was more than ready for the Pre-K class.  I know she'll miss her friends from last year. But in the end, she won't go to kindergarten with any of those kids anyway.

In related news I find it disconcerting to have an almost five year old. Nope. Not ready to whoop and holler yet. Give me some time though. I'm sure I'll get there.











the postcard her teachers sent. It arrived today.

It's been a crazy busy summer. We're gearing up for an even busier fall, so I am determined to get this updated before Sept 1--which of course is a few days before we leave for our Disney vacation! :)

A few highlights of what's to come from this summer:

Swimming!

Vacation at the cabin and water park!
