Caiti's First Day of School

Today was the day I have been looking forward to for a long time. It was my sweet little Caiti's first day of preschool. I was such a proud mama helping my baby girl onto the bus. She was so excited. She was running up and down the aisle of the bus jabbering and giggling while we strapped in her car seat. She was so happy. I got a call during the day from her teacher just touching base about what she can eat, etc. I could hear her tantruming in the background which was actually kind of funny. Her teacher said, "She's pretty stubborn isn't she. She likes things her way." I just laughed and said, "Yep." I guess they were trying to teach her cause and effect, so they were having her place a bead in a can, and if she did that, she could play with her favorite toy (a light-up carousel thing). The reason she was screaming was because they would take the toy away from her until she put the bead in the can. So I would hear screaming while they were trying to get her to put the bead in the can, and then silence when they rewarded her with the toy. I just picked her up off the bus. She was so happy. I think she is going to like school because it will give her a chance to get away and have all of the attention for a few hours. I'm sure proud of my little girl.
