Blake started preschool yesterday. That’s a long story for another day, but how cute is he? But it gets better.

All morning he was so excited to get to preschool. So much so, he woke up at 7(usually he’s up at 8). As I walked into his bedroom, I noticed his backpack and outfit neatly set out by his door.  I really wanted to make him change his mis-matching outfit, but I couldn’t downplay his independence.

We were ready with plenty of time to spare to walk to preschool, which is located just a few blocks from our house. He was so excited to go, but the best part was seeing him so happy for me to pick him up. Not for the fact that he didn’t like it, but because he was so excited to tell us about it. He’s a few weeks late starting, but he didn’t seem to mind.

His favorite part was snack time- M&Ms and pretzels, but as I laid in bed with him tonight, he told me that his other favorite parts were singing songs and being the door helper.

To a great year!
