Paiglee's in Pre-School

Today was Paiglee's first day of pre-school and it went very well. I have been nervous about this for a while because of the whole potty situation. Paiglee is still doing well but lately I have had to stay on top of her to make sure she goes pee. She also pooped on the potty and got her computer but has not done so since. But I was worried cause it is new and she wouldn't have her frog potty, and she can't really undo her pants on her own and yeah so I pretty much have worried to the hilt about it. I did make sure she went potty before we left and again when we arrived there, and lucky for me she pooped before she left this morning. But the whole time I had my phone right next to me ready to go clean up her poop in her undies. But time came and I went to pick her up and she didn't have an accident, I was so happy an relieved. She got a toy for no accidents at school.

We got up early and got her ready this morning and to be honest I have been excited for her to go to pre-school , more than nervous. It is going to benefit her more than being with me those two hours. She really needs the social atmosphere and to have a learning structure other than what she gets at home. I think this will help her come out of her shell a bit and be quicker to warm up in new situations. I think it will also help her with speech and developing longer sentences, her teacher is really great and pretty much lets the children do everything on their own, and that is something she needs, when she is around me she knows I will do everything for her.

She knew she was going to school and was a little too quiet on the car drive over I began to worry about her. I had the nervous bug all morning, leaving her there was so weird, I left her for two hours before but this was so different to know it is every other day and that she is getting bigger. I was sad because this means I get less time with her to teach her things she needs to know before she really leaves me all day. I guess the momma bear came out in me the whole instinct was to not leave her but she needs it, it is good for her. Plus I think I will cherish the time we do have together and we won't be as bored together as we have been before, cause sometimes she gets tired of me and I get tired of her, so this makes our time together better.

I am going to like having two hours free to do whatever I want or need. I plan on exercising for the two hours and I realized today that I don't know if I could go home and just hangout it would feel much too weird. I mean when I leave her with a babysitter I am doing something important or at an appointment or on a date or exercising while Daryl is home. I think it was so weird to drop her off because I had really nowhere to go nothing that had to be done, but I will say I didn't feel guilt while working out. Before I always had guilt when I worked out, I always felt I should be at home I should be with my family. But today I felt great I didn't feel rushed I didn't feel like I had to hurry to get back to my family. But I still missed Paiglee and the whole time I thought about how fast time has gone by and before I know it she will be in kindergarten. It also made me realize how much I don't want her to grow up, and that she isn't my little baby anymore. I am sure that is the same for any mother, but it is just hard to think that she has moved on to the pre-school stage rather than the full time stay at home kid.

She did Very well on her worksheet

She was super happy to see me she told me she had a snack and juice and she showed me her work she did. It gave me so much joy to see her so excited and proud of herself. Hopefully we can continue to not have accidents at school and that she just learns a ton and blossoms.

Oh and she also has show and tell everyday to help them develop sentences and describe what they have, she took her Mater truck I seriously wish I could be a fly on the wall in her pre-school.
