Enrolling in Preschool

Yesterday I signed the boys up for preschool at the Golden Pond school. The boys were very excited when they looked in at one of the classrooms full of kids playing and learning.

Avery asked me if he could stay and then Zach piped up to say he wanted to stay as well. I told them they had to wait until the pool was opened and closed. That may sound odd, but currently we explain the passage of time to the boys in terms of various milestones (Example: the weekend is two bedtimes away). When we left, Avery asked if we could go to the pool; given that it was March and 52 degrees outside the whole "pool thing" was perhaps not the best choice of metaphors.

[Update]

Avery and Zachary got accepted to our local Preschool today. We are looking at 3 days for Avery and 2 days for Zachary starting in September. I'm very excited.
