She was so excited she woke up at 6:30 asking me to help get her pajama shirt off so she could get dressed. After she was dressed we laid in her bed and read &#8220;Froggy Goes to School.&#8221; This morning was very pleasant and she was really looking forward to school. We had breakfast and Daddy went with us to drop her off. Today was Alyssa&#8217;s first day, but it is actually the third week of school for everyone else. It was nice that everything was routine for everyone and not a lot of crying kids. We followed her down the stairs to her green classroom. When I drop her off in the morning, they will open the door for her and she walks down to her class by herself. She walked in and greeted her other 5 classmates. Ha. Yes, five. Ms. Carmen showed her where she could put her stuff and it just so happened to have Noah&#8217;s name on the space.  How cool is that. She did great. Gave us all hugs and kisses and went to play.<\/p>\n<p>Mom: &#8220;How was your first day?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Alyssa: Good.  We learned about Noah&#8217;s Ark, but &#8220;I already knew all that.&#8221; We talked about the color red, the circle and the letter C. I even learned how to do a C in sign language. (With only 6 kids, they each get a special job each day.) I got to pass out the napkins for snack time.  We had cheese and crackers, but the cheese was yucky. Keely said she liked it though, but I didn&#8217;t. I sat by Keely (the only other girl in her class) most of the day. During music time, they played the Veggie Tales, Noah and the ark song and I knew that one. But they sang other songs that I didn&#8217;t know. And we didn&#8217;t get to go outside because it was too hot.<\/p>\n<p>At least she didn&#8217;t just say &#8220;Fine.&#8221;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Today is Alyssa&#8217;s first day of her last year of preschool.
