I got a call from the toddler coordinator at baby K's daycare earlier this week, informing me that they have a spot available for baby K in Peaceful Ponds, one of the preschool classes. A few hours later, AM (baby K's current teacher) calls me and the first thing she said to me was, "I heard the bad news." I was thinking, "uh oh... what now??" but then I realized she was referring to baby K's transition to preschool. She said the toddler coordinator had dropped off some paperwork for her. When she saw baby K's name on top, she immediately said to her, "I don't want it... put it in the shredder." I thought it was sweet of her to call just to let me know how much she'll miss my little girl. Baby K is very attached to AM, so I'm sure we'll be visiting her a lot in Penguin Pals even after the move to preschool.
Most of the Penguin Pal alums had graduated to Peaceful Ponds, so I was very happy to learn of the opening in that particular class. Hopefully that will aid in the transition since a lot of baby K's friends are already there. She's been visiting Peaceful Ponds a few hours a day and seems to be enjoying it so far. I'm just afraid that with the baby coming around the same time of her official transition, there might be too many changes for her all at once. I've been trying to prep her on the baby's arrival, as well as the move to preschool. Can't believe my little girl will be turning three in just a few weeks! How fast time flies!
