Emily had her first day at pre-school on tuesday. I stayed with her for the session and Wayne looked after Tom. She wore her uniform which is a blue sweatshirt and t'shirt and really looked the part. She was really excited on the way there and when we got there she was given a little cardboard person to put in a pocket on the wall to say that she was there!! Then she put her bag in her tray and got stuck in. The children all take registration and I have to admit I was a bit choked up watching her sitting with the other children and saying good morning!! She played brilliantly and did what she was told, she especially liked playing on the computer and painting. She sat down with the other children to have "tuck" and was chatting away to a few other girls! They sung "the farmers in the den" and another girl Holli picked Emily to go in the middle with her and then Emily picked Rachel who is also quite new! I ended up doing some cleaning and helping out with washing up and bits and pieces as she was really confident and didn't need me at all!! She is really excited to go again tomorrow and is going to take Mary Poppins for show and tell!
Whilst all this has been happening for Emily - Tom has learnt to pull himself up to standing and is very pleased with himself - he will pull up on anything now especially the sofa and it seems to have opened up a whole new world for him!!
