Ronan's first day at pre-school.



Ronan had his first day of school today! Argh.....when did my baby boy grow up?? Yes, I bawled like a big baby when I dropped him off. I did make it to the truck first though so he didn't see me.



He looked so big when he was all ready for school with his backpack on. Never mind that it is nearly as big as he is!! He loved wearing it though, cause it has Spiderman on it and didn't want to take it off when we got to school.
He is going to the Early Intervention Center (I know it's spelt wrong, that is how they spell it over here!) He qualifies for the free services there because of his speech delay and sensory issues. They have qualified speech therapists and occupational therapists at the school who work with the kids and all of the teachers are trained to deal with kids just like Ro. There are also kids without developmental delays or disabilities in the classes to encourage the kids to accept other children and develop social skills. It is going to be such a blessing for us to have Ronan go there.
He made a great first impression today...lol. He walked into the classroom and one of the teachers came over and said Hi to him and asked if she could put a sticker on him so they would know his name. Well he told her "NO!" But she went ahead and put it on him anyway. So....he looks down at the sticker, looks up at the teacher. Rips the sticker off his shirt, slaps his teacher on the arm and tells her to "GET OUT" and points to the door. He was not impressed.....lol!!

What a cute big boy!! It sounds like a great program! That is awesome! I'm sure he will have a great experience there even if he doesn't like his teacher :D
