First day of MDO Turtles class!
The teachers said Drew had a GREAT day! They said he got grumpy a little before lunch, so the whole class just ate early. Sounds like my kid, that's for sure! Today he played with trains at the train table, played on the playground, painted a circle using a marble, played with poppers (cut up pool noodle pieces that pop really high when you squeeze them), drove a grocery cart around the class, went to music class, drank from a water fountain, and, of course, ate a snack & his lunch. I'm sure he did even more, but that's what I know about. That's quite a bit for 4 hours of "school."
He crashed when we got home and so far he's been asleep for 2 hours! I planned on volunteering at the church just to be accessible in case of a seizure, but the MDO director (and Matt) convinced me to leave. Believe me, I made sure every single teacher and admin knew how to give Drew his emergency medication - I made printout procedures, information about seizures (with highlighted emphasis added by me) and even stopwatches for the teachers to time seizures. I'm "that" mom! I was a nervous wreck leaving him, but he did great....and this mama got a pedicure!

I'm SO glad he had a good day!!!!!
I wonder how much longer I'll get to dress him like this? Heehee. I'm enjoying the cutesy stuff while I still can.

Cindy,
I am so happy that Drew felt good today and had fun at school. I know that made you feel good about leaving him. YEA!! GO DREW!
What a great day!
You did a fantastic job on his t-shirt for his Turtle Class. It is so cute. You did a good job on his back pack also and his lunch box is so cute. I'll bet he loves it and will want to play with it at lunch time. So cute!
You made my day with this new post.
I love you,
Mimi
Sounds like Mr. Drew is off to a great start in MDO! Way to go, Buddy! I'm sure that he will have a great year! Clayton was in the Turtles class one year at our school. I love his shirt! I think you should dress him in cutesy stuff until he is old enough to refuse. ;)
My Drew starts preschool tomorrow. I am a nervous wreck, but he is sooooo excited! Fun times... :)
