First Day of Preschool

Lauren's first day of preschool was on Wednesday. She is again attending a Spanish Immersion program through Zeeland Christian. Her teachers this year are Maestra Garcia and Maestra Jiminez (a difficult one for a 4 year old to pronounce!). Both teachers are very nice and extremely mothering with lots of hugs and kisses. Her class is exactly opposite from last year with all boys and very few girls. Lauren is one of 3, and after the first day had made friends with all of them. We are hoping that she will use the knowledge she gained in her spanish class last year to have more confidence and use her spanish in the class more often this year, and maybe even help her classmates to learn. She already seems more comfortable and willing to go into class and start her day. I had to ask her several times on the first day if she was ok, more to make myself feel better about leaving her! She quickly kissed me, and walked into class, saying 'adios mom!' Oh, they grow up too fast!
