First day of school

My youngest 2 guys started school today. Luke is in the 4's preschool class, and Ben has started toddler daycare. Luke was happy to be starting because he got to go to the "big kids" class and play on the "big kids" playground. He was so excited, when he arrived at school he was jumping around and fell and his nose started bleeding. He was a trooper, though. He stopped crying, washed up in the bathroom and said "OK Mommy, I'm ready!"



Ben was a little more difficult. He's never been in daycare, so this was new to him. He went in with all of us easily enough, he started playing. When it was time for us to go, he cried. His teacher took him to look out the window and the rest of the day was uneventful. When I came to pick him up (3 hours later), he did the happy dance and I received the best hug. He is now napping with no problems.

Hayden starts Year 2 (first grade to us Americans) at the British School after Labor Day.

I wish they would stop growing!

Why can't they stay little forever?
