Douglas went to "school" for the first time ever at the beginning of September.
This is what his hair looked like when he woke up for his first day of school. I laughed out loud when I walked into his bedroom that morning and saw this masterpiece. NICE.
His teacher, Miss Sandy, LOVES him. She said to me a few weeks ago, "He loves people so much, we have to watch him because he wants to go up to everyone and hug them, but sometimes he squeezes too hard!" When he went through his hitting phase, I told him that we don't hit people, we give hugs and kisses. So I think now when he's overly excited, he takes that energy and uses it to hug his little heart out instead of hitting. That's improvement! Now if we can just teach him that choke holds are not included in the hugging category.
This is what sweet Douglas Thomas looked like on his first day of school.
We ran in to Cousins in the parking lot. Words cannot describe the cuteness of the three of them traipsing across the parking lot with their lunch bags and backpacks ("pack pack" as Douglas calls it) in tow.
Douglas loves school. He has gym class and music class. His favorite part of the day is music class. When I ask him how his day was and if he sang any songs, his eyes instantly light up and he starts dancing in his car seat.
He loves it. I love it. Everybody wins!
