Growing Up

It would appear that as much as I want to keep Quin my baby forever, he is growing up. This whole growing up thing seems to be happening at an alarming rate! Today he started preschool, next week I suppose he will be graduating college.

As it was our first day of preschool, he did not go alone. We spent an hour getting to know his teacher and classmates. Next week, Quin goes from 9-10:30 on M/W and on Friday starts his regular schedule of 9-11:25; all of this by himself! Today I am guessing he thought that we were just there to play at a new place. I think he is going to be in for a little bit of a shock when I leave him on Monday. Overall, we are really excited about him starting preschool this year. I think he is going to do really well!

Over the past few days I have really been thinking about how fast time is flying by. We have known for a while that Quin would be starting preschool this year, but the actual day crept up on us. I wasn't able to prepare myself and I didn't even get Quin a backpack!

Quin will be attending a Co-op preschool in Loveland and will be in the same class as one of his friends, Ian. Here they are before their first day:

Quin seemed to have a lot of fun today. He played with blocks, Mr Potato Head, playdough, magnets, and dress-up. What a fun morning! We shall see how he does next week!
