Return to Preschool

Dallas returned to preschool yesterday after taking a week off for our vacation to Iowa.  He had a very difficult time when I dropped him off and left.  Let's be honest...he started crying as soon as we walked out the door to get in the car to drive to preschool; he sobbed the entire car ride; and then kicked and screamed when the teacher pried him off my leg.  I felt like the worst mom in the world, but I knew he would be fine after a few minutes; and he was.

But, when I picked him up, the first thing the teacher said was that he had a slight accident.  She also said he had been really "brave" and didn't cry.
Apparently, the little man's feet got going faster than needed and he tripped on the sidewalk on the way down to the playground (it's a pretty good decline).  His Lightening McQueen sunglasses took the brunt of the fall - which protected his handsome face somewhat.

Until next time...

Isn't it the worst when they cry and look at you like you're never coming back? We've started leaving Maddie in the 2s and 3s Sunday school class. I feel like a horrible mom, but they keep telling me it'll get better. I hope it gets easier for Dallas too!!!
