Notes From My Mommy

** Mommy wants in on this blogging and has decided to leave notes here from time to time. Just for the record, I cannot be held accountable for what she says - she is nuts. **

Today was Khai's very first day of school. I really thought I would break down like I hear other moms do, in the parking lot or even as I was handing him over to his teacher, but surprisingly I did quite well. It wasn't as hard as I thought! Don't get me wrong, I thought about Khai ALL morning and didn't do a lick of work - waiting for lunchtime so I could go back and check on him. But at most, my eyes teared up as I was leaving...but thats about it.

I had found this daycare center back in May and liked what they had to offer - then this past Friday, John, Khai and I finally went to check it out. We met with the director, Nancy, and she gave us the grand tour. All the kids were SO friendly and the teachers were all very attentive, which of course is a good sign. We also really like that Khai won't just play all day, but will be learning too. Nancy also told us that the kids are taught Spanish and baby sign.

This morning was a bit tough. Khai cried when he realized we were leaving him there - but his teacher Ms. Lili, told me that he calmed down right after we left. When we checked in on him at lunchtime he was sitting with his classmates while the teacher read to them - Khai was sitting front and center, eagerly participating in whatever it was Ms. Lili was having them do (i'll post the picture later - haven't uploaded it yet! Bad me.)
When I came to pick him up in the afternoon, he was so happy and was such a chatterbox. This makes me so very happy and i'm so glad he's finally able to be around other kids his own age!
