Nursery

Yup! Lucy started nursery last sunday! I can't believe she's already old enough. Neither can she. As long as mom was with her, Lucy did great. As soon as mom left to go help dad with the Sunbeam class, Lucy flipped out. They'd bring her back to me. She'd settle down. And then we'd head back.

After the first time I left her, we came back in and her nursery teacher said she was super impressed by how well Lucy could talk. Huh? She talks a lot, but not in English. Or so I thought. Apparently, after Lucy realized I had left, she started bawling. When they asked her what was wrong, she yelled "I WANT MY MOM!!" What the?! She's been holding out on me.

Hopefully it gets better. I've heard the first month or so is a little hard on the little guys.

A few other funny things from the first two hour nursery block:
-Kyle came in to see if I could come back and help him. When he closed the door, Lucy started crying for "DAD!". Then all of the other kids in the nursery started crying for their dads. Classic.
-Lucy was the only friend who sang during singing time. Only she liked to sing loud solos at the end, after the song was finished.
-Lucy refused to color with only 1 crayon. She wanted more. The kid next to her colored her picture.
-Lucy doesn't like animal crackers or goldfish. But she nicely shared hers and another boy's with one of the other girls.
-Lucy is getting "thank you". She said thank you to her teachers every time we left the room.

  1. Love it! Nursery is rough. I made my girls cry it out, but I know a lot of nursery teachers won't do that. Can't blame them! I think it's hilarious that Lucy gave them a complete sentance. So precious.

  2. You didn't know Lucy could talk? She calls me on your phone all the time and we have nice long conversations. :)
