Joseph takes on Preschool

I'm just going to start off by saying I will never forget the look on Joseph's face as he lined up to head into his preschool class this morning. The look on his face said it all. "I've been waiting 2 long years to walk down this hallway". It's true. We had many hard mornings when he couldn't line up and go to preschool with Madeline. So, I wasn't sad this morning. I didn't sob. I'm happy and excited for our little dude. He gets to spend every Tuesday and Thursday from 9-11:30 being a "big kid" by himself, making his own friends instead of being the little brother, being silly, learning to follow school rules, singing songs and creating artwork, discovering what it's like to be his own leader, having his own thing.

Joseph is such a fun little boy that loves the outdoors, being barefoot, running and chasing, playing with friends in our neighborhood, and loves his role as the goofy little brother. He loves trucks, especially fire and trash trucks, and wants to be a fireman when he grows up. He's caring and sweet, has this little voice that melts our hearts, and definitely keeps us on our toes. Our little guy is quick to ask us to lay with him and cuddle. As much as he loves to be active, he also appreciates down time with a movie or his favorite show, Beat Bugs. His favorite accessory is his cowboy boots, which he definitely wore today. He requested "pikey" hair and wanted to pick out his own clothes. The excitement on his face was priceless as he got to hold the chalkboard and have his very first day of school picture taken. And before this whole adventure, our little sweetheart made sure to plant a big kiss on me.







 That face. My heart.
