all things preschool

tuesday was parker's last day of her first year of preschool. it was "family day" so we were all able to go. it was a bit sad, especially because she won't be returning to the same preschool with all her cute friends. i have to admit i had to hold back tears a few times. but it was no where near the tears that came when i dropped her off for her first day (sept. 11). yikes. but i was pregnant then, so i have a bit of an excuse. . . crazy hormones.

this is parker on her first day of preschool. . . and then on her last day.


she really loved preschool. here are some things i hope she remembers from this year of preschool:
  1. learning to recognize and write letters
  2. the surprise can
  3. taking curious george (the class mascot) to utah and idaho
  4. learning new songs, especially the pizza song
  5. staying at the snack table for all of her free time
  6. teacher marci
  7. the fruit and veggie bag
here's a picture of me on my first day of preschool. i'm the one holding big bird.

things i remember from preschool:

  1. my teacher, miss millie
  2. puppet shows
  3. having a balloon pop in my face
  4. the table with wood, hammers, and nails (is that safe?)
  5. baby chicks
  6. show & tell
  7. snacktime. parker and i have that in common.

Sirri is done with pre-school too. So sad. Now on to kindergarten. I don't know if I will cope.

Parker is too cute. I hope she remembers pre-school as well as you.

And I love the "vintage" mommy at pre-school shot!!!
