Today was Mary's first day of preschool. She was very excited and loved everything about it. With her at school, that left me only Emma and Ruth at home. I put on a show, gave them their bottles and the house was very quiet for a long time. It was kind of nice but I almost didn't know what to do with myself. (I exercised, then got in a quick nap.) I guess I better appreciate it while I can and there's no crying baby in the background. I might actually be able to take the girls to story time at the library again. I think I can keep up with two.
But it is also nice when Mary and then Kate get home. I think they are appreciated more now. Emma and Ruth were both a little disconcerted at being left behind so they were glad to see Mary come back to play with them. Emma had a thousand questions for Mary about the elusive preschool and just exactly what they did there and Ruth just had a big hug and smile for her.
I guess it is nice both ways (with and without the older girls.)
