It's here... school!

We get to go to school today!!!






Ben (in blue) and Conner were of course very excited to put on their backpacks and walk around with them. They kept their hands right where they are in this picture because they didn't want their packs to fall off!!









We're at school!




They ran into their classrooms and promptly forgot about Mom and Dad. We stood there for a while and then realized that we were actually supposed to leave them there!!! Our morning went by sooo sloooow, even though we actually did get quite a bit done! When we went to pick them up, Conner ran up to Nick but stopped short and then ran back into his classroom. Ben walked as slow as he possibly could out to the van and once he got there, he cried and cried! They didn't want to leave school!!!!





Overall, it was a very successful first day! (And I didn't even cry... well not really....!)

Seriously, I am almost in tears looking at them with their big backpacks. They are too cute! Hard to believe they started preschool! So glad they loved it, I love that they cried because they had to leave, that is really a good thing! Give those sweet preschoolers hugs and kisses from us all. Love the McLeland's
