As you may know, Matthew will start his medical technology internship in a few weeks. When he does, Malcolm will be in full time daycare/preschool. Malcolm is old enough to participate in the Universal Pre-K program, offered at a wonderful daycare across the street from our apartment complex. The preschool program, proper, doesn't start until September, but the summer program is in the same classroom, with the same teacher, curriculum, and classmates. Matthew and I decided to have Malcolm start a few weeks early, and go twice a week -- a chance to get used to the new routine, before attending five days a week in August.
Today was Malcolm's first day there. Since it's in preparation for attending the pre-K program, you could essentially call this "Pre Pre-School." As it turns out, Malcolm loved it! His new teachers appear to adore him, and he told me in the short car ride home all about the fun things he did at school. The marble maze, playground and teachers were among his favorites. He even took a nap (first time in over a year!) simply because that was what his classmates were doing! Looking forward to the weeks ahead!
