Palmer's First Day of School

Today was your long-awaited first day of school. We got you dressed, 'hawked your hair and gathered out front for a commemorative photo. Sure wish I would have known there was a little person finger print on the lens before I took the photo...



I called midway through the day to make sure you were okay. The director told me you didn't nap and that when she looked in on your class during nap time you were sitting at a table doing an art project, quite pleased with yourself for getting out of a nap.

Your teachers fell in love with you, just like we knew they would. Your daily report said your favorite activities were art and playing outside. Your teacher wrote: "Palmer had a GREAT first day! He had a few sad moments but they didn't last long. He loved* doing art and kept giving everyone kisses. YAY!"

* your teacher wrote the letter "o" in the word "loved" as a heart (L-heart-O-V-E-D). She is very young and enthusiastic and full of energy. Bless her.

You darted toward us when we came to pick you up. Sister likes her new role of dropping you off and picking you up from your class.

Tonight you were so tired that you fell asleep before finishing your bottles. I think school is going to be good for all of us.
