First Day of School

The kids started pre-school/MDO in early January. I found a program I really love! They only go one time a week but I plan to put them in twice a week in the Fall. The MDO director has made this transition so smooth and easy for ALL of us! I am so grateful to have found such a great school and church. The kids go to MDO at the same place that we go to MOPS and this is also the church we've been visiting (that will likely be our new church home), so this has also helped them transition so easily.

Here are their backpacks lined up and ready to go!


Craig took off work the first day of school to help me get them to school and while they were in school, we enjoyed some time to ourselves.We were late getting to school the first day because of an accident and the highway being shut down so there weren't many pictures being taken. Here we are getting out of the car, backpacks on and napmats in hand.
The drop off in their classroom.



It has been 3 weeks now since they started and things are going great. The school has a curb drop off in the mornings and I figured it would be a couple of months before we tried this because they and I wouldn't be ready for that. After only 2 weeks, I dropped them off at the curb on week 3. We can thank the cold weather and the logistics of getting 3 bundled up 2 year olds, 3 backpacks and 3 napmats across the street, for being the cause of pushing this sooner than expected. They did great walking in the school with the teachers and nobody cried!
