Back to Preschool

Despite spending a delightful summer mostly in her nightgown, Emma was more than ready to go back to preschool when her chance finally came.  She kept asking if it was time to go, then told me not to wait at the stop signs and lights along the way because she was "going to be late!  And they probably already started playing without me!"

But we got there in plenty of time to take a picture of her choice- with a bushy beard-

 and of my choice- I love that sweet smile!

 Preschool is old news for Emma this year, and I think she likes it just fine that way.  She marched right in, hung up her backpack, hugged her teachers, 

 and settled in to play with some of her favorite preschool friends Leah and Lexie.

 After a quick puppet show, 

 and some fancy-ing up, 

it was time for us to part ways for a bit- me to a parents meeting and Emma off to have fun!  And just a little while later she was done and ready to tell me all about the "super huge fun" that she had, how great it was to be back with her friends, and the changes that were made to the classroom over the summer.  Then she ate a huge lunch, took a long nap, and told me she's ready to go back again!  We both love preschool!  Here's to a long and happy year of cutting, coloring, crafting, and snacking galore.
