Sneak Peek

Today was sneak peek at the pre-school and the girls got to go meet their teachers and see their classrooms.  Both of them were really excited.  When we arrived Harper got her new red school bag and she carried that thing around proudly!  Last year she would always want to carry Handley's for her so I know she was thrilled to have her very own.

We went into Harper's class first and right away she found the baby dolls.  She went from one thing to the next looking at all the fun toys her class has to offer.  Handley also kept showing her items in the class and telling her how much fun she would have.  Harper was very friendly with her teachers, Mrs. Deborah and Mrs. Jennifer and seemed so comfortable with them.  Handley was in their 2 year old class a few years ago and we just LOVE them.  They are super sweet and so much fun.

Next it was time to walk down the hall and find Handley's classroom.  Her teachers this year are Mrs. Mary Ann and Mrs. Tamika.  When she walked in Mrs. Mary Ann gave her a Pre-K survival kit (including all sorts of cute items and candy with special meanings) and she and Harper went off to explore the things in the classroom.  Handley's teachers seem great and I'm so excited about this school year for her.


Note: Yes, that is Hudson being held by Mrs. Mary Ann.  He started fussing right when we got in the class and she noticed that I was juggling him as I was trying to sign up on various forms.  I wasn't about to turn down her offer to hold him for me.  She swayed back and forth and got him right to sleep for me. 

When we got home and looked through the paperwork I was telling Handley about her "homework" that she will have to do for Pre-K (finding show and tell items corresponding with the letter of the week and cutting out pictures from magazines for the letter of the week).  This put the biggest smile on her face and she just loved the idea of having to do real homework for school. :-)

ok, first, the girls both looked adorable at the Sneak Peek, and I LOVE that you already know Harper's teachers. That must be comforting. I bet Handley is super-duper excited about having real schoolwork this year. I guess this is the start of it for us moms, too!
