Tyler started preschool today. He got a new Thomas the Train backpack for his stuff. In the morning, he seemed excited to go to school. When we got there, he asked me where Je Je (Natalie) was, expecting that she would be at the same school. I told him that she went to a big kids school. We went into his classroom and met the teacher. Then David showed him the toilets and they practiced peeing and washing hands. After that, we got him warmed up with some toys and played with another kid. I hugged him and said good-bye and he was fine.

When I went to pick him up, his eyes welled up and he came to me and held my leg and cried. He kept saying he missed me and repeated it until we got home. The teacher said he cried a little during the day a few times and barely ate lunch, but he did nap well. Hopefully tomorrow will go better.
