Mother's Day Out

This post is a bit late (insert huge understatement), but better late than never.

 In September, Lucy started Mother's Day out at our parish Church.  The boys did not attend Pre-K, but I knew that Lucy would need to be with peers of her own age.  She is terrific at miming what others do, and trust me older brothers should not be her only role models (think forcing oneself to burp & laughing hysterically, of course I mean that Lu is doing this).  So in comes Pre-K.  I was really nervous about this leap, and a good friend of mine summed it up, "In our houses they do not have handicaps, but once we walk out the door their delays become noticeable."  I couldn't have said it better myself.  After meeting with her teachers, they assured me that typical children have problems with the same issues I was worried Lucy would have.  I really felt like we were leaving her in good hands.
On the first day, she could not have been more excited to get in there and play with the other kids.  She didn't even have the time of day for me, and I barely got a picture (thanks Kathryn!).  And when I came to pick her up, her teachers reported that she did great.  And every report since has been the same.  She is doing awesome, but you all knew that she would didn't you?
