Ok, well it is really daycare but we are calling it school. I dropped Maddy off around 10:00 a.m. yesterday morning for her very first day at, Ready Set Grow, a new daycare that just opened up in Darien. Her teacher said she had a great first day playing with the other toddlers, making her very first art project with fingerpaints (as see above hanging proudly on our refridgerator), singing songs and dancing. Mommy was most worried about Maddy laying down and actually sleeping, but she took a nap for an hour and a half which isn't bad at all for her first time sleeping on a cot. She needed some encouragement when it came to eating, in fact they had to help her use the spoon, which is kind of funny because at home she doesn't allow us to help her with anything! She is very capable of using the spoon and fork on her own so I think she has them fooled, at least for now. Overall I think it went really well. Joe said she was really exhausted when he picked her up and went to bed right at 7:00 p.m.. She must have been tired because this morning she didn't wake up until 8:30 a.m., talk about a good nights rest!

Ooooh, good! I am so glad that she did well at her first day of "school". I think it's brilliant that you are calling it that! As she gets more comfortable I am sure she will act more like herself. The Maddy that we know and love! And I am glad that momma got through the day too. :) Sometimes I think it's harder on us than it is on them. Keep us posted!
