First Day at "Work"

It was awesome! At the end of the day all sorts of people were asking me "So, how was it?" which is code for "Did you survive?!" What's so funny about that is that not only did I survive, it was soooo much easier than being at home with my three crazy ones (this day, at least). I'm in the baby class. On Wednesdays there are only five kids (including two of mine). So I'm only taking care of two more little ones than I'm already used to AND there's another teacher in there with me. It was so great! Micah and Emma are in the class with me, and Joel is in the three year old class. Micah and Emma did great in the new environment, and it was so wonderful getting to spend so much time with Micah. I wasn't expecting it, but it really tugged at my heart strings when Joel went off to his class by himself. I was so worried for him. No particular reason, just being a mom I guess. But he did great. The teacher told me that he listens well (Can you come home with me?!) and he just needs to get used to the routine, which is expected. The other kids have been doing this for almost three months, or longer if they came in previous years. At lunch I asked Joel about his day.
