New Parent Orientation

Emma starts Preschool on Friday. Last night we went to new parent orientation. Other than Sam "talking" the entire time, it went good. Just to elaborate on Sam though - this is the child that I thought would never talk. He is usually pretty quiet, especially if he has his pacifier. But put him in a church sanctuary with one person talking to about 100 other people and he becomes Mr. Chatter Box. Running up and down the aisles, standing in the seats. Needless to say, Stuart took him out about 1/2 way through. Anyway, I had ordered Emma a tote bag through the school, because they recommend the smaller kids not use back packs because they are difficult for them to get things in and out of. Well, Emma's backpack was there at parent orientation for us to pick up and oh the look on her face when she saw it. She was SO excited. She carried her bag around the rest of the evening. The lady who makes the bags snapped a picture of her with her bag and sent it to me. I have never attached a picture so I hope this works.
