First Day of Preschool!

Yesterday was Charlie's first day of Preschool. He goes to a little school called Country Junction, and it is literally a little red school house. We've been anticipating this day for a long time... and Charlie was ready! Of course Avery thought she was going too, and had to have a new packback like her brother, because she has to have everything the same as him.
Despite what I had been warned about regarding the first day of school, Charlie had no hesitations! He ran right up the ramp into his classroom and never looked back. As Paul and I were walking back out to the car, he popped his head out the door and said "Where are you going?", to which we explained that we would be back in a couple hours... he blew us a kiss and that was it!
Sadie is five weeks old now... hard to believe. The time is passing so quickly! I've never been so keenly aware of the brevity of life as I watch these children literally grow before my eyes... and am continually challenged to enjoy every moment in realizing that they will only be this little for a short while. Soon enough I'll be wishing the time back!
