Xander Goes to Preschool

I signed Xander up for Pre-School!
Here he is with his very first
Assignment!

So far so good. The First day that I attended with him he was a bit of a crazy kid. This is what I posted on Face Book.

Xander's first Day of Preschool. Went as follows. Cried during the singing of the "Wheels on the Bus" Said "I don't want to sing this song". Ripped up the puzzle Mat on the floor. Kicked a little girl during story time and shot her with his finger gun. "Bam, Bam, Bam" and threw sand at a little boy on the playground.
And I thought I was raising a sweet little boy with "Love and Logic" I can't stop crying today.

Here are some comments I received

• Tiffany Downs Brown Were you the teacher? Are you doing joy school? If so, he probably doesn't like sharing you.

  Nichole Johnson Thanks Hannah! I feel a lot better now! No Tiffany, I was not the Teacher. I am sending him to a little Church Preschool down the road and they had Parents come the first day. I asked him, later on...Xander why did you cry during Wheels on the Bus and he said, "I wanted to play with the toys". I said why did you throw sand at the little boy and he said, "I did not like his Cowboy boots" Oh well. I guess we will just see how it goes :)

Well I am happy to report that going by himself without me watching is probably the best thing for him. I am trying not to be an over protective Mother that corrects every little thing the little guy does. But sometimes I do.

He has been put in "Time Out" a couple of times. But I really hope this is a good experience for him. He seems to enjoy going and is happy when I pick him up. So I hope things continue to get better.
