Jack's 1st Day of Preschool (Take #2)

Jack started preschool last week - Wednesday Sept. 4th.  He is attending Wesley Preschool 3 days a week, and is excited for another year of lots of snacks, lots of friends, and lots of playing on toys that aren't his.  We have been blessed to have friends that are in our neighborhood and church that the kids see regularly that are also in school.  Jack's buddy Tate is going to preschool with him, and we'll be carpooling (YAY!)
He looked so "old" this year.  I have to note what an AMAZING reader he is.  Seriously this boy is bounds above and beyond what Sam was doing at his age.  He fell in love with sight words last year, and that is what has skyrocketed his reading.  He is reading daily and I'm always so impressed with his love for it and his desire to try to get the words on his own.  We are really excited to see how he continues to progress especially in his fine motor and speech skills - which were the biggest areas of concern last year.


 Jack was able to bring snack the first day because it was close to his birthday.  He brought smore's trail mix and grapes.  It was a big success!  I had to laugh because when everyone sang Jack the birthday song he completely zoned out, and instead of the typical smile and happy face that a child would have, Jack was totally unresponsive.  So much for that!)
