First Day of School

The first day of preschool was yesterday. Juliana was so excited! I bought the dress several weeks ago and she has been waiting impatiently to wear it - pink and purple of course. I let her pick out the backpack - after I vetoed Hannah Montana - and she selected Barbie because it is pink and has pictures of jewelry. She put the backpack by the door before bed last night and she walked around the house in the morning wearing her backpack for about 10 minutes before it was time to go.

Last year all of the 3 and 4-yr olds were in one room; this year the preschool is divided into separate classrooms for the 2 ages. Juliana's teacher from last year is in the 4-yr room this year and Juliana was very excited to get back to Miss Moran. We were happy to have her back with Miss Moran to make drop-off in the morning easier.

Last Week of Preschool

Last week was the final week of preschool for the year. She will be spending the summer at the school's childcare program and back for 4-yr preschool in the fall.

In the last few days, they went on a field trip to the zoo - she was so excited in her purple and pink, ready to go see the animals.

They had a carnival with races after school last Tuesday. And on Wednesday there was an end-of-year program for the parents where the preschool class sang songs, told stories and received a certitifcate.

Friday was the last day of preschool for the year. She loves her teacher Ms Moran and fortunately Ms Moran will be teaching the 4-yr class next year so we will have another year with her.
