Preschool Girl


  This is the first year Irelyn has attended preschool in a 3's class. She goes twice a week for 2 1/2 hours and adores it. She has an amazing teacher and aide and truly looks forward to each day she goes to preschool. The major hurtle at the moment is leaving preschool. Many kids  usually are timid and don't want to leave mom or dad when dropped off, but since day 1 my daughter literally tells me to leave. When we leave preschool it is a crying tantrum. I guess she is a little too much like her mother ;) I have to say as hard as it was to see her grow up and begin preschool, I love seeing all the things she brings home from school every time she attends. I love her excitement and I have a collage of her days on our fridge.  I am please we masted potting training and now have her in a great social learning situation. The next item to tackle is her little 3 year old attitude. "Mommy, I don't want to!", "Mommy I can do it myself!" or just simply "No!". The stress doesn't stop with Mommy because Daddy, and her grandparents and feeling her attitude also. It can be very trying some days but usually it is nipped quickly and we get to enjoy our little girl's amazing personality and kind heart. I think three is a hard age because they want to gain independence and we are not use to it quite yet. They still need help and supervision and they tend to disagree. I have overwhelming days, but then the perfect days make up for it. I  have joked with some friends that I think the main word I say daily is "No". When I read some of my first blog posts is makes my head spin on how fast she has grown. I try to enjoy each milestone with the hurtles they bring because they grow up too fast.
