Preschool

We had our very first open house today at a preschool for Luke.  I was really impressed!  Luke has applied for the 2 year old class.  My only hesitation is that he will be by far one of the youngest in the class.  The cut off on the birthday is 9/30.  Luke barley makes it.  I think he would thrive in it but it may take him a bit more to adjust then the others.  I swear he knows as much as a 2 year old does.  He just doesn't have the verbal ability yet to actually say it. 

The class size for the 2 year olds are 9 children with 2 teachers.  I think that is perfect.  They have music time, Spanish classes, reading, etc.  All of the teachers seemed to be really great and the staff was nice as well.  

We find out in the beginning of March if he gets in.  It is based off of a lottery system so it is totally luck if he gets in.  I'm not holding my breath b/c there are a ton of applicants each year and only 9 are selected.  We will see!

Luke was such a good boy the entire time we were there.  The other little girl had a mini melt down but somehow Luke managed to keep it together!  He loved the blocks in the classroom and the fish on the rug :)

Next week I have another open house to go to so I hope I like that one as well.
