First day of Preschool
Sending your first born to school is like sending your heart out into the world. But Maya's been eagerly asking about Preschool every day since I asked her if she would like to go. I've been fretting about her being in the big bad world without me but it's time. Time for her to go into the care of a wonderful school where she can explore the world, make friends, learn how to stand in line, share, and for God's sake learn that kids her age USE THE POTTY.
I admit I moped a little when I got back. But then I got busy.
In less than 3 hours I've accomplished more than I usually do in a week.
So far I've:
Polished off a piece of chocolate cake the size of my head.
Gone through a month's worth of mail.
Paid Bills.
Done 2 weeks worth of Laundry and for the first time in 3 years PUT IT ALL AWAY.
Cleaned (sort of).
Took out the trash.
Finished knitting a sweater.
Gone to the Post Office.
I'm starting to think this preschool gig will be good for the Fickle Family, assuming California isn't washed away by all this rain.

I remember my first day like that! You don't know what to do with yourself for about and hour and then all of a sudden you realize you can do anything you want without being interrupted! Congratulations to you and Maya :)
