You would think by looking at this picture of Matilda on her first day of pre-preschool that she loves school. Alas, not so much. Her first day went wonderfully and of course was too good to be true. Her 2nd and 3rd days were trying for all of us (she only goes 3 days a week). Matilda is great at pulling at mommy & daddy's heartstrings with her constant "I don't want to go school," "I cry at school," "I want to stay home with you," and other such guilt inducing sentences. She even woke us up one night crying in bed about going to school (which made it very difficult to fall back asleep. Honestly, I'm in my 30s & loosing sleep over school!). Of course we know that this is all to be expected that eventually Matilda will love school as much as she did the first day, we're just hoping that day comes sooner rather than later!
