First day of preschool, again

So Afton had a rough first day of school. She walked out the door with her head hung low and said the teacher wouldn't let her go to the bathroom. I didn't say much but tried to find out the positives hoping it wasn't that big of a deal. Sure enough the next day I picked her up and she ran straight to the bathroom at the school. She said her teacher wouldn't let her go again.

I wasn't sure what was going on but couldn't imagine her teacher not letting her go. I didn't want to talk about it too much because I wanted Afton to tell me what she was feeling without my opinion.

Well the next school day Afton said she had a headache and didn't feel well and couldn't go to school.
Ugh - at this point I asked the gal up front if we could switch back to Tuesday, Thursday. The waiting list for MWF is pretty big I guess so it was an easy switch. I asked Afton if she'd like to go 2 days a week and she was really excited. I said you'll have a new class and a new teacher but she didn't mind at all.

The next week she started again with Mrs. Mower. When I picked her up she was talking a mile a minute, started showing me all her work and she skipped all the way to the car!! Yay! I can't express how much this lightened my heart. I was feeling so sad.

She loves her new teacher and is excited again for school. She loves taking Mrs. Mower fresh apples from Grandpa Tom's apple trees!
