Nate Starts Preschool! March 2009

Another big happening for us in March was Nate starting preschool! He was getting pretty bored being home all day with just mom….no other kids around to play with like Tim, Caroline, and Leah had at his age! So in March, Nate started attending preschool at Magic Years International Preschool 3 mornings a week, from 8am to 12pm. It took him a week or so to start to settle in, get used to the routine, and yes, get used to riding the bus (really a van) to school every day! But once he got into the swing of things, Nate loved school! His school is pretty neat, and his class is a big mix of nationalities, but of the 13 kids in it, probably 8 or 9 of them are Thai, and the rest vary from American (just two of them), Filippino, and various European ethnicities. The kids have a huge playground to play on (Nate LOVES this) as well as some really neat “specials” just like the big kids – P.E., Music, Art, Woodshop (yep!), and even Thai class! Here’s a few shots of Nate’s first few days of school. First at home with his backpack on, ready to go, then waiting outside for the "bus" and then actually on the bus!
