This little boy has been wanting to go to preschool since Samantha's first day of Kindergarten. With finances the way they are-- it hasn't been something we could do. Lucky for us, our local high school offers a 6 week preschool for a fabulous deal. Collin gets to go to the highschool M-TH for a couple hours. On Mondays and Wednesdays his highschool "buddy" is Maddy and on Tuesday and Thursday is "buddy" is Chad- both really cute with Collin.
My biggest concern was what Owen was going to do without his "Colla"
We had been prepping Owen-- explaining that Collin was going to go to preschool and that he would be staying home with Mom. Of course, this never went over very well.
Example: The morning of Collin's first day he was dancing around saying how excited he was and all the sudden I hear "Colla, please don't leave me"
Talk about ripping your heart out.
I decided that I would try and do a little something fun for Owen after we took Collin. I told Owen that we could go to Target and get an ICEE and then look at the toys. On the way to Target (only 3 min after we dropped off Collin) Owen asked if it was time to pick up Collin yet. He then proceeded to ask me atleast 6 times throughout our Target trip.
Now 2 weeks later-- not much has changed. Collin ABSOLUTELY LOVES preschool and Owen continues to cry when Collin leaves and asks me several times if it's time to pick him up. I'm sure that Owen will finally adjust by the time the 6 weeks is up!
