Bittersweet
Ethan started preschool today. I have mixed feelings about it. He enjoyed it, and he’ll have lots of new experiences there. The other major benefit is that it gives Roseli one less child to worry about for a few hours.
But I also feel somewhat guilty to have someone else take care of him, but I’m not sure why.
When I was in early elementary school, there was one mom who came in regularly to help. I think even then I thought that was neat, and I want to spend time at my children’s school. I asked the two preschool teachers if that would be okay, and they said it would. I came to pick him up early so that I could get to school on time, and they were making little creatures with clay, colored feathers, pipe cleaners, and beady eyes. I love that stuff, so it would be fun to play, too! Ethan is so sweet, and this is such a special time in his life that I want to savor it, if I can.
