Brayden's First Day of Camp

So we survived our first day of camp at the preschool that Brayden will be attending in the fall. I say "we" because I think it was just as hard on me as it was for him or maybe even harder on me!

I had him all excited for preschool. We talked about what he would do and he watched his Wonder Pets show where the Wonder Pets help a blow fish go to preschool. I think he really thought that he was go to preschool with the Wonder Pets. He kept saying in the car that he was going to preschool to see the fish and when I asked him where we were driving to, he said to the pool to go to preschool. It was pretty funny!

So we get to preschool and we go in and he immediately clings to my leg. I pass him off to his teacher, give him a kiss and I am off. I did not want to linger but the parking lot was crazy and I couldn't get out of my parking space for awhile and Brayden knows my car so he was not happy. I drove by and he was sobbing so I tried to hold it together but I called Ben on the cell phone and sobbed too! In fact, I am crying now just thinking about it.

Cami and I went out and ran some errands and had some girl time together. It was quiet around the house but almost too quiet. I really missed my little man. I kept looking at the clock to see if it was time to pick him up.

Finally, the time came and I picked up Brayden and he was so happy to see me and I was so happy to see him. He was all smiles and had a great day! He talked non-stop on the way home in the car. He told me he had fun at the playground and that he colored with crayons. He even made a puppet! I asked him if he wanted to go back to preschool and he said very nonchalantly "yeah, okay." What a cutie!
