Last week, Tess and I were running errands just the two of us and I told her how much I would miss her when she went back to school. Very maturely, she told me not to be sad because she would always come back home and we would still have lots of time to play ...
so very wise.
Not only did Tess help me through the transition, she also helped Claire. Last night at bedtime, we chatted about the first day of school for Claire. Tess reassured Claire that she would help her and that if she got scared, she would hold her hand. Tess did not let her little sister down -- she was there for Claire today and Claire did great. Claire loved school and cried when it was time to leave!
First day of 3 year old preschool for Tess (3 years and 6 months) and 2 year old preschool for Claire (who will be 2 tomorrow). Declan (5 months) is looking forward to some quiet time for two hours on Tuesday and Thursday mornings!
