He Did Not Even Look Back!!!!

So today was Johnny's first day of Pre- School with out parents.. I woke up this morning and started sobbing... I am so not ready for him to be a big boy.. However he had something different in mind.. We took Brooklyn to her class and then went to Johnny's. He gave me a kiss and away he went, DID NOT EVEN LOOK BACK!!!! He went into his class as if I weren't even there.. and yes I did cry, ALLLLLLLLLLLLLL day :)
I sat in the parking lot for 15 minutes before I drove away. He was fine, all the kids were playing and having fun..
So I called my friend Kristina and sobbed to her and then it was John's turn to listen and then my Mom and the list goes on...:)
His teacher is the same Teacher Brooklyn had in Pre-School. She handed out a small bag with a pack of tissues and small bag of M&M'S and a poem that read:
Parent Survial Kit for LEAVING your child at Pre-School,
First - here is a tissue to wipe away that tear.
Then- some comfort food to get you through the day.
When you eat:
YELLOW- think of all the sunshine they have brought into your life.
RED- is for all the love you feel for them.
ORANGE- is for the way they can be sweet and sour at the same time.
BLUE- is for the days when thing aren't going easily for them ( or you)
BROWN- to remind you that if they come home dirty....that means they had FUN!
GREEN- to remind you that they are like little plants, growing everyday..
Thank You for trusting us to help nurture that growth..

On top of a box of tissues with a poem that read :
The day is here for our Johnny guy
School's begun- Mom will have a good cry!!!
But just remember all that's to come
cause hanging with Jenel and Kristina is a LOT OF FUN!!!!
Tiff--we hope this helps you on Johnny's first day!

Thank you guys it did help.
