My favorite thing when picking up my 2 older kids from their preschool is when they’re playing outside at pickup time.
I love going through the side gate and getting a peek at the kids playing with their friends or running around in circles. Today I went around the corner to see my daughter standing by one of her favorite teachers- the one she talks about missing every weekend and how she wants to tell her everything that she does. She saw me and ran to me, thrusting the object in her hand toward me saying “Look!” She showed me the old keyboard she had been playing with in the sand. My son was running with a friend whose mom was there to pick him up already. I said hi to the other parents and to the teachers and tried to get my kids gathered up. My daughter ran up onto the porch of the yard, needing to hug each of her friends before leaving. They were playing with old house phones, pretending they were talking to their parents. I love this school. This will be our last school year there, before the kids venture off to the next thing. This place gave us the ultimate foundation for the last 3 years and it will always be a place full of growth and magic in my heart.
