School days

Well today was our second day of preschool. Eva is doing better than I expected. She cries (or should I say kicks and screams) for about 3-4 minutes when I leave her and then she is a "little teary but holds it together" the rest of the the morning. After I pick her up she is very proud of school and tells me all about her friends and the morning activities and she talks about going back. I am hoping the longer she goes the easier the morning drop-off will be and that she will be more comfortable while she is there. She has brought home crafts she has made each day and is very proud of her work, showing everybody that comes to our house. The staff at the preschool has been exellent so far. They have really been wanting to make things good for Eva and make her experiences positive.

Preschool is working great for me. I am getting to go to the dam and walk/run by myself and then go home for a shower without an audience. I am getting much needed exercise and getting time alone just to think and be thankful. I think everyone benefits from my me time.
