Sometimes I think she's jealous that she doesn't have Hearing Aids (she's a "peer model" in the class). I'm a Speech Pathologist in a nearby elementary school and really wanted her to learn more ASL and communication techniques than I could teach her at home. And I think that after 6 months of preschool, she is really learning a lot about diversity, abilities, and friendship. are those snazzy turquoise ear molds in his ears?? :) My daughter is in a class of children that are hard of hearing.

Glad it went so well! And any store is great without kids, I say try grocery shopping on one of your alone times!! Why is it that these days are always harder on mom than on the kids!

It was very hard. He was ok with me dropping him off, he didn't cry a single tear. But me...yeah. As soon as I hit the car out they came. Though he can tell me about his days at school, he refuses...we have to bribe him to get any information out of him. I guess to him that is his time, and his alone...not for Mommy and Daddy. He's been going now for almost 3 months and though he is still very quite about it, he doesn't fight going...I know deep down he likes it and it's good for him. As for what to do with the time...I do house work! There is a lot I can get done in the 3 free hours I get twice a week. Expecially without someone going behind me messing it up again. But the house is very quiet. Hugs to you, It will get easier. My son started preschool this fall too. It was very hard. He was ok with me dropping him off, he didn’t cry a single tear. But me…yeah.

Three are in school with the baby still home. I just think that when I get there I will have so much to fill the time. Volunteering at the school for one thing. Not to mention shopping by myself, cleaning the house and having it stay clean for a few hours at least, working on the computer without someone sitting on my lap pounding on the keys. Hmmm... I know I will go through a bit of sadness to leave the baby stage, but right now it sounds pretty darn good!! I am not quite there. Three are in school with the baby still home.

I'm thinking you may tear up when his first LOST tooth you see? (Since that is also a sign he's growing up!) But please do remember me when you see that first wiggler!
