Preschool Already?

Filed Under: Family Tagged With: back to school, dustyn

I still can not believe that this little boy

is starting preschool tomorrow.

It is his first day, but only a half day/meet the teacher day. Wednesday is his first real day of school. I love him so much. I pray that he does great. I think it will be really good for him and I won’t feel so bad for him while doing all of Carsyn’s therapies. One therapist has already switched to a day while he is in school. Hopefully the other two can switch too.

I am so excited to hear what he learns at school. Originally I had wanted to home school him, but with everything going on with Carsyn and the fact that we are trying to sell our house. It is just too much.

You all know I will take a ton of pictures tomorrow and Wednesday. Trying to figure out which day I should count as the “First Day”.

I will leave you with this bubble shot and a little school inspiration.

    They do grow up WAY too fast. I already had two moms today at playgroup ask me if I was going to send my little girl to preschool. She's not even two yet! Do I HAVE to think about that already?

    What a milestone! I'm sure there have been a few mommy tears too. Nowadays the kids don't even realise that they are learning as it's really all playtime to them. I hope he settles in well.

Still on my to-do list: a gallery wall and living wall, but I'm a bit nervous since I'm not exactly good at that. One day, though... I also dream of getting a projector to display scenes on the big white wall.

I'm going to miss my Halloween decorations when they come down - time to start scouring thrift stores for Christmas decor, I suppose! 🎄
Thanks for coming along on this journey with me. I Thanks for coming along on this journey with me. I am so grateful to have my own library/plant space. 

It will be a few more months/weeks before it’s complete but I’m proud of how far it’s come. 

What I have left to do still: Get the top for my desk and seal it. Organize my craft stuff and put it on the shelves under my desk. Figure out my gallery wall above my desk. Order my @wallygrowplanters for my living wall. And of course buy more books and plants. 😆

It may not be perfect or Instagram “worthy” but it’s mine and I’m proud of all the time and effort we have put into it. The rug arrived today. I am so pleased with how it is coming together. Thanks so much to my cousin @r_holz9 for all her decorating advice and @em.e.hicks for putting up with my million text messages. IKEA bookcases will be here tomorrow. Then need to paint them and start moving my books out there. After I finish with that, I will work on my living plant wall. Not sure when my low bookcases and desk will be built, but it will happen eventually. Almost there. 🙌🏼
