And we're off!

Reid had his first day of pre-school yesterday! Our schedule is suddenly crazy, but it will be good to get back into a routine. Summer was nice, but random, which isn't the best for the little ones (or me, for that matter).

I was quite amused with him on the way there. It was like he was trying to prove that he was ready to learn (or, I suppose, getting warmed up). The whole way there he was like a little pre-school version of an encyclopedia that was spewing at me from the back seat. "M makes the mmmmm sound, Mommy, like the word marshmallow." "My lunchbox is a square because it has four sides." (Then we had a rather lengthy discussion about the difference between rectangles and squares, which got me absolutely no where.) And there was a peppering of questions, too. "How many sides does a triangle have?" "They have three, Reid." "Oh, I don't like triangles."

He was really excited to go and I'm really excited for him. I'm really impressed with his teacher this year (last year's was a big disappointment). I can't wait to see what he learns!
