1st day of Preschool

Adrie started preschool last week and she was really excited! Very different from Kyra about starting school, she didn't shed any tears.

When we were getting ready to leave Bree got Adrie's backpack on and headed to the door

When I wouldn't let her just take off out the door this is what she did....so sad

She has cute friends from the neighborhood who are doing preschool with her. Aiden, Adrie and Mercedes

Adrie and Miss Julie or Miss Silly as the neighborhood kids like to call her. She is in our ward and the kids adore her.

Adrie just walked right in with no problems. She held Aiden's hand the whole time because he was a little nervous. She told me later that day that everyone thought they were brother and sister and then some people thought they were cousins and she said "finally Aiden said to them, 'for the last time we are just friends", it was funny.

Bree waltzed right in too and just assumed she was staying. She got a baby doll and some books and made herself comfortable

We went with some friends to Einsteins for a bagel while the kids were in preschool

When we picked the kids up Adrie was excited to show me her basket

Then since the preschool is at the same school grandma works at and Bret and Jess go to, we went to say hi.

Me and my girls

Jess and Adrie-Jess was so cute, he ran right over to Adrie when he saw her out at lunch-even in front of all his friends he wasn't embarrassed that his neices were their to see him

Bret and Adrie.

When we found where Bret was sitting at lunch we went over to say hi to him and I was so impressed with him and his friends. Bret is a student body officer and very involoved and popluar and him and his cute cute friends were all sitting at this table and when I walked up they said "Kecia this is our friend Berkely" and I look over and there is this cute girl with down syndrome sitting at their table with all these cute boys. I went over to talk to her and she put her hand out and said "Hi I am Berkeley, I am a sophomore" She proceeded to tell me how she loves school and how nice these boys are. I was so impressed with these senior boys to be including this cute girl. It made me a little teary because I just hope and pray that there are good boys (and girls) that will be that kind to Bree someday.

All in all it was a good day and I am glad Adrie is enjoying it. It is easier for me to let her do it because it is only an hour and a half long. We have a carpool so we only have to drive once a week and the other day when Julie K brought Adrie home Julie D and I were working on PTA stuff in the kitchen and Adrie comes in and says "Ahh It's good to be home with you all again!" Adrie's little personality just cracks me up.
