"He was fabulous!" ~ Julie, Edison's new teacher.
His belly is full and he's ready to go!
Putting on shoes with Dada...
A final hug...
"Buh Byeeeee!"
And he's off!
Edison had a great day! He was so happy to be there and gave Martin and me a big "Byeeeeee" before we were ready to let go :) The teacher felt like he did really well. He spent a lot of time with the other children, he sat in circle time (with help) and was in a great mood the whole time. One of the bigger issues is Edison's "fluttering" about. He just doesn't stop. So they're going to talk to the Occupational Therapist to see about adapting the chairs so he is more comfortable and able to concentrate a little more. When I picked him up he was just all smiles. They said he has a lot to learn but they're confident that he will. My guess is he'll have a few lessons to teach along the way :)

That is so excellent!!! He's going to grow so much just having other kids around! I LOVE that picture of him inside your door waving. ADORABLE. Big hugs to the little guy!

How wonderful. Seeing him all ready to go, waving goodbye brought a little tear to my eye.

I am happy for all of you, and especially as a mom and former integrated preschool teacher, I can't wait to hear of all of Edison's new adventures!
Thanks for sharing the good news!

I love this little fellow - and his mom and dad. In all the wrinkles and detours along the way, he has taught us much. I am cheering as he eagerly walks through this door - so eager and expectant. Maybe he's got it all figured out. love...

Oh Jen, the picture of Edison waving at the door brought tears to my eyes! I'm so so happy for you all--he's such an amazing little guy.
