Two weeks ago, I was standing in line at 5am to register Jackson for 2 year old preschool. I was number 6 in line. By the time they started the registration, there were 28 people in line. After I enrolled Jackson, there were only 3 spots left in his class. I have heard that in the past, there were people in line at 4am. I thought I was nuts to be there at 5am!! It's crazy what we as parents will do for our children. It was well worth it. I wanted to get Jackson into a great preschool program and now he is!! Yeah!! While I am excited that I got him in, I am very sad that he will be going. I have cried many tears thinking about it. I can't imagine how I will be when I actually drop him off that first day. It is going to break my heart!!! I do not want my baby boy to grow up. It was a hard decison for me. I really did not want him to start until he was 3 years old. However, I had to make the decsion to start him at 2 1/2 years or 3 1/2 years. I really did not want him to be almost 4 when he started, so I went with this year. He will start in August. I am not looking forward to that day. He will only be going to two days a week, but I am just not ready for that. He will be in class with several of his little friends, so I hope this will help him in staying and not making a scene. God knows, I could not handle that!! I am going to be that mother sitting in the parking lot checking on him every 5 minutes. I know it will be good for me to have that one on one time with Savannah while he is in school. That's the way I am going to try to handle it and hopefully it will be easier. :-)

Yeah!! I was in your shoes this time last year and now I am so thankful we have a spot in that program. Meredith has LOVED it and she will be in a 2 day class for 3's next year so I am sure you will see me around!! You are going to be so happy...it is the BEST!!! Worth the early wait (we got the next to last spot last year)
I have heard from so many what a great program it is and how much their kids loved it. I did not realize Meredith was there too. I guess I will be seeing you around. Maybe, we can do breakfast one moring.
