Ashton's First day of pre school 29/1/14

Dear Ashton,
Your first day of pre school. You are growing up way to quick. I wasn't worried about you going at all as I knew you had been looking forward to this day for such a long time now. I woke up early to get you ready and I had a touch of sadness go over me. I am going to miss having you home with me. But I was excited for you to finally get what you have been waiting for, for so long.

The night before we packed your school lunch. You chose strawberries and watermellon, an apple, a vegiemite sandwhich, a cheese stick, dinosaur biscuits and a yoghurt. You where very excited about the dinosaur stickers I stuck on your water bottle so you could know which one was yours.

In bed I was talking to you about school. Telling you to wee and poo in the toilet not the grass, listen to your teachers, don't put your hand in the fish pond. You asked me why? I said because you will get into trouble and you pipe up with I want to eat the fish. I almost had a heart attack and told you no you can't eat those type of fish. You cracked up laughing then and I had to laugh too.

Zack, Amahlia, Koen and I took you, we walked in and I helped you write your name. We put your bag on your name and your drink bottle and lunch into the fridge, put sunscreen on and then you where gone down the back. I went down the back and you where taking your shoes off getting on the equipment. I asked if you where going to kiss me goodbye so you ran over to me gave me a kiss and went back to what you where doing. So we left.

I was thinking about what you where doing all day. We went to pick you up and you where playing away. Your teachers are Jill and Andrea. Jill said you told her where to go that afternoon when she asked you not to do something. Sounds so like you. You had such a great day. You excitely told us you fed the chooks, picked vegies, played in the sand, danced.

You were so tired. You only made it through 2 pieces of bacon and half of rissol before falling asleep on Zack's bed watching a movie. The other half of rissol by your head. I found you asleep at 7.15pm. You looked so hot so I took off your shoes and took you into you bed.
