Today the twins started their Pre K class in town. This was a lot tougher than sending Tyler to school because Tyler has been in some sort of structured program for a few years so it was old hat for him. These guys really haven't been in anything where they leave us and go learn in this type of environment. They looked so small going in there! I have to say Jenene did really well and hardly cried at all. All in all they did great and even went back for their second day. On the first day we brought them in and the teacher whom they had met and a bunch of aids came out to get them. We had been preparing them for this by telling them we would be taking them to school and they would stay there and we would be back and pick them up. I think Coop got thrown off because the aid he had never met before came to take him. He lost it and tried to cling on to me. Jenene and I knew what we had to do and we busted loose and left. I felt awful for poor Cooper as he was led away screaming and Shea had a look of horror. It wasn't until today we learned that Shea had consoled him and rubbed his arm telling him it was ok. Thank goodness Jenene said they were a lot better on day two and though they still had a bit of fear in their eyes, there were no tears. They seemed to enjoy it but I guess we'll know more in the next week or so. I just couldn't believe we were at a point where all three were in some sort of school. Where did the time go? Next thing I know we'll be at high school graduations.
