He's a little older now so maybe once the routine gets set he'll get use to it.<br /><br />You'll be fine. My Sprout was the youngest three year old last year in preschool. He looked so teenie tiny walking up to the front doors (as I took pictures of course!) But he loved it! It was ME that needed to adjust to it!CMhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15697762495151569561noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1434047468114822475.post-63065895488649513962010-08-02T20:20:30.096-07:002010-08-02T20:20:30.096-07:00I never though going back to school would be so ro...I never though going back to school would be so rough on me as a parent.

We didn't pull him, but we put him in K knowing he may need to repeat (his bday is Aug 15 and the cutoff in MI is Dec. 1).<br /><br />He is NOT happy about doing K again, but I think it's for the best. He's smaller than everyone, and while he is middle of the road academics-wise, he is immature and I KNOW that another year will give him the confidence he needs to be very successful.Kmamahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05008496338777404036noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1434047468114822475.post-71932437280588108272010-08-02T08:38:32.664-07:002010-08-02T08:38:32.664-07:00Starting next week?

You will do great! Think of it...They will do great. You will do great! Think of it a blessing to get to sit and enjoy Ryder while they are away having fun and learning! Them going to school will be great time for you two to bond and cuddle... and probably clean up some spit up! Oh my! Change is tougher on adults than kids! You will feel 10 times more anxious than Lucas, I'm sure! Remember, you are the parent. If you feel like sitting in on their class you have that right. Who cares what the teacher thinks. That's your baby and if you need to go make sure you are comfortable with what is going on, then you go! Sit away! Most of all, pray for them. Some things are out of our hands (as much as we hate that). Pray with them before they leave, pray while they are away, and pray with them when they get home. Keep your heart focused on letting God take care of them while they are at school. You just enjoy this last week! I can't wait for all the stories of what Alex will say at school and what amazing project Lucas will do!Amyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07585164388854189512noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1434047468114822475.post-21187282948416762092010-08-02T08:32:38.927-07:002010-08-02T08:32:38.927-07:00Hope they do great for you!
