A new house = a new Preschool!

A new house = a new Preschool but really = a very nervous mommy. You see, I am one of those moms that started planning, looking and had Cole on a list at the age of 1 for preschool, even though he would not start until he was 3. Now here we are at 3 and this is his third Preschool...uggg. His first one (that required his name on the list at 1) was in East Sac and I loved that one. He only went there for about 1 month. Then our house sold and thinking that we would be moving to El Dorado Hills, I got him into a great Preschool called Busy Bees that he has been going to for 5 months. Again, we loved that one and he had made some great friends but I was commuting him 2 days a week from Placerville. So while he was at school, mommy and Charly had to find things to do for 3 hours, which is not easy with a baby. We would find ourselves in Target wondering around buying things that we really did not need. Then I would drive around while she attempted to nap in the car (nightmare). So, when I fell in love with our new home in Placerville, I new driving him would not be realistic and the hunt was on for another Preschool. I had heard about Country Day Montessori from a friend who's little girl goes there and my dad and brother also know the owner. I also heard that it is hard to get into and there is a waiting list....uggg. So, I of course dressed Cole and baby in some hip and cute outfits and up to the school we went. I met Miss Carol and my two super cute kids took a tour of the school. The kids were doing yoga that day and my super hip Cole ran in, saw his friend Emma, off went his shoes and he was hooked for the next hour. I talked with Carol and instintly felt like this was the place for not only Cole but for Charly too. I was praying the whole time that she would fall in love with my super hip and cute dressed kiddos and we would sneak ahead of the waiting list! Low and behold she told me there was 1 spot open for the Spring and Cole could take that spot. So, now here we are about a month later and I just dropped Cole off for his first day at Montessori. I did not sleep at all last night thinking and hopping that he would have a easy transition and now I sit worried that he is having fun, that he is making more friends and that of course he know where the bathroom is in case he has to go. Although he did inform me today that he only poops at home, which now I am even more stressed that he will have to go and won't want to... uggg the stress of a mom! I must admit it is nice to be able to come home after I drop him off, put Charly down for a nap and have some ME time (hard to find these days). I should be cleaning, doing laundry getting ready for the rest of our day but it is nice to just sit and enjoy the quiet. Well, Cole man I hope one day you read this and know how much mommy loves and wants what is best for you. Although I am enjoying the quiet, I miss you so much when you are not with me. I have loved being your stay at home mommy and now I am watching you grow into a little boy. SLOW DOWN MY COLE MAN. WHERE HAS THE TIME GONE. Mommy loves you.
