First Day of Preschool

Today is the day that I have been excited for and also dreading for some time...Matty's first day of preschool!  When we brought him home from the hospital almost 4 years ago to the day, he was a tiny 6 pound baby on oxygen and monitors, and today he is an independent, wonderful boy with a brilliant personality who steals the hearts of everyone he meets.  He was so brave as we walked him into the school...he chose a cubby and then started playing toys with another boy.  We waved goodbye to him and he waved back and didn't seem sad or scared at all.  I peeked in a few more times and he was doing fine, so the school year officially began!  The 2.5 hours seemed to speed by, and we took him out for a celebratory lunch at Panera and some yummy Gigi's cupcakes.  We both thought that he'd be talking up a storm, but he didn't really have much to say.  Oh well, at least day 1 is behind us and he did great!
