Preschool

I have already admitted that this summer with my kids turning 3 and 5 was really hard on me. I don't have babies or even toddlers anymore I have two kids. (Big kids according to them) It doesn't matter how old you actually are, when your kids get older it makes you feel OLD!

Today I enrolled Addison in preschool. I waited because I was going through all the reasons I shouldn't sign her up this year...

Preschool for a 3 year old is glorified day care
We are moving
Guhner didn't go until he was 4
Taking Guhner to Kindergarten and her to preschool would leave me driving all day
She is my baby and she can just stay home with me!

Recently (Eric has been telecommuting and traveling back and forth) Addison has developed separation anxiety with me. As bad as to say that when I go upstairs to change out laundry or go downstairs to clean the kitchen and she doesn't know where I am she freaks out and starts crying. Not just crying, sobbing, the first few times she did it I was looking for the blood and a missing body part. Well there was no blood... I think preschool will be really good for her and to help her with her anxiety. She never cries when she goes to nursery at church, she LOVES it and I know she will LOVE preschool.

She will attend 3 days a week for 2 1/2 hours....I don't know what I will do with myself....
Yes I do, I will clean my house in half the time and maybe get caught up on some projects and even some scrap booking! Then I will look forward to spending some time with my kids after school and not take it for granted!
