Countdown To School: 2 days, and several hours...

I can't believe that Tuesday Winston will be a "student." Even though the definition of a pre-school student includes playing with play-doh, communal potty breaks, and making sculptures out of egg cartons....I still can't get over the fact my little man will be in a classroom with other students for 3 hours out of the day. I'm keeping my fingers crossed (very tightly) that this experience is a positive one for him and us. Brandon and I have made bets as to when we will get the first phone call home from the teacher. I'm hoping we can get through the first month at least without any calls or emails to home. If Winston makes it a month, then it will be smooth sailing from there. We had open house this past week, and I could tell he was initally apprehensive about being at the school. But once he saw all of the fun toys in the classroom (because learning is supposed to be F-U-N!!), he made himself right at home. I have a feeling that not only will the teacher being teaching Winston a few things, but he will be teaching the teacher a whole bunch of things--hopefully all positive! Wish us luck--I don't want to have to sit in the car like a stalker across the street, or have Winston give all of the other kids an anxiety attack with deafening screams!
