First Day of Nursery School

Today was Mason’s first day of nursery school at Brookdale School. It was an orientation with parents, so we got to scope out the classroom, meet his 2 teachers, and take stock of all the trucks. He was very excited for his new backpack from Nana and put his Cooper dog inside. We we got to the school he had his own special hook with his name on it and was able to hang the backpack there, which he was very excited about. He was fine playing with all the kids in the classroom and talking a little to his teachers, but wasn’t too happy when they wanted the adults to go into the hall so the teachers could be alone with the kids. He kept following me into the hall and didn’t want to stay, but then he found a huge garbage truck and told me it was ok to leave him. On Thursday he has his first full day (2 1/2 hours) and drop off with no parents, so I’m hoping it goes well. He keeps saying he liked his school and especially the garbage truck! I’m sure we will both shed some tears on Thursday, but I’m so proud of him and know he will have a great experience at Brookdale. Can’t believe my little boy is growing up!
