Preschool: Day of Firsts for C

The world gets competitive as the years pass and parents like me have to face the fact that we will need to equip our children with the proper tools to survive. One of these tools is education and the start of which is for C to start going to school...preschool, that is.
A lot of "firsts" for the month of July and August that would need some documenting...
  • July 19 - finally deciding on the "right" school for C. Uber happy since we visited at least 4 schools before we finally felt "it" was right.
  • July 23 - C's first day of preschool. No anxiety till pick-up.
  • July 31 - Yaya's day-off and C was uber behaved and ate as much as he could...which made E & I relieved that he is starting to be less fussy. (Hooray indeed!)
  • August 2 - C asked his teacher to change his diaper on his own (as per the teacher)
  • August 3 - C's most improved day at preschool. Not much crying aside from being left behind in the morning and was able to eat his snacks in school. 
Hoping for more great milestones to come and be remembered!

For now, I'm savoring the moment when C's still innocently "somewhat like" to go to school now. I'm sure it won't be long when he would be choosing his courses and picking his classmates than be with us at home. :P

C's in preschool already? how time flies! how old is he na nga?

@Cris - yes, time surely flies! C's about 1.9 yrs old na and he's been really interested in numbers and letters so I think a more formal training than the iPad would be good for him. It would also save me trouble from having him adjust for nursery next year when I'll be thinking about BB2. :)
