1st Day at Forest Hill Playschool with Mia and Kate

Well, the day started out fine. Aston woke up around 7 ate breakfast and had some play time while I continued to get organized for his "big day". He even got in a mini nap! Yippy! My biggest fear about this whole school thing was that he would be sooo tied due to the lack of his morning nap. We got to school and met Daddy, Mia, Kathryn (Mia's Mom), Kate, Anne (Kate's Mom) and Bruce (Kate's Dad). We had a mini photo shoot and we were off to their classroom (#113) where we took a few more photos and then handed them over to Miss Stephanie. Asty clung to Jeff's shirt when he realized what was going on...we said our goodbyes and we were on our way. There where some tears on both sides (babies and mommies) but I was confident he would be fine. Anne, Kathryn and I went to Starbucks off Quail Hollow for coffee and to debrief about this mornings happenings. Later I went to the gym and left my phone in the car...so DUMB! In the meantime his teachers were calling because he just would not calm down. They ended up getting a hold of Jeff who was able to come to his rescue. I got there later and started shaking I felt so terrible:( He was so fine though. We were told this happens all the time:(

I took him back to room 113 so he could hang out with Mommy to show him that it was a cool place to stay...when we got there all he wanted to do was play with the trucks...as if he cared less that I was there;) Next week we are going to start later then everyone else and ease into it...we are crossing our fingers...poor Asty:(
