First Day of PreSchool

Lily went to her first official day of Preschool today. We took her in at 9am and had a parent meeting for an hour. On our way back to her classroom, we saw her on the playground...just kicking around in a circle, not really doing much of anything. I felt so bad for her! She looked lonely. The teacher came over and took her hand, and she seemed pleased. We didn't let her see us, of course, but we watched her walk back to her classroom. Such a cutie. When I was allowed in to pick her up, she screamed "Mommy" with a huge smile, ran over to me, jumped up and gave me a huge hug and kiss right on the lips. Yummy! Seriously brought tears to my eyes. She was so happy to see me again, that makes a Mommy feel good. The teacher said she didn't want to color today, so Lily brought home a plain black and white uncolored picture of an apple. Kinda pathetic, really. I told her she smelled sweet, like chocolate. She said she wanted more "lemons"...luckily I already knew the teacher had given her "M&M's" so I knew what she meant! You certainly don't want to mistake that meaning :). After Daddy demanded his own royal welcome, off we went back to the car. She wanted to hold my hand in the car on the way home, how sweet is that! So, I offered her the next best thing...a Lilypop (aka lollipop). She was in heaven again. Daddy took her to the park, then to Publix to get a balloon. She came skipping into the house, happy as can be. To top it all off, she went poop on the potty like a big kid, and was so excited about her new stamp and sticker! Wow, all that before naptime! I'm tired just thinking about what tomorrow will bring :)
