'Twas The Night Before Preschool

'Twas the Night Before Preschool

And all through our home

Preparations were happening

For the big day to come!

**

Clothes were laid out

To dress fast the next day

A carefully planned outfit

And new shoes- hooray!

The backpack was filled

And laid just by the stairs

Photo album and blanket

Packed in with care

She awoke filled with glee

And her hands started clapping

"I'm so happy for school"

She said with feet tapping!

**

She dressed and she ate

Out the door like a flash

So excited to go

To the car we did dash!

**

Arrival on time

Traffic lighter than planned

Posing for pictures

Mom's camera in hand

Our big girl, so proud

With her backpack on tight

Outside this door

Everything looks and feels right

Stopping inside

By the PC's to pose

So excited to have time

To play in these rows

Off to the classroom

Hang up the backpack

Find her named cubby

She's got quite the knack

Some hugs for her mom

Some hugs for her dad

Off to check out the room

So proud and so glad

Miss Mindi guided her

Showed her around

So many toys, Adventures to be found!

From baby to now

Time has gone so fast

And this little person

Is a Big Girl at last

She'll eat and she'll share

She'll rest and she'll read

The teachers will take care

Of all that she needs

No tears were shed

At least not by me

But someone please explain this

To little Zachy

**

He cried for his sister

He cried in the car

Not understanding why

We left her so far

**

But tears turned to giggles

His frown to a grin

His drop off went smoothly

So everyone wins

**

So Teagan's First Day

Has begun oh so sweetly

Here's hoping the day

Speeds by oh so neatly!
