Off to school

Stanley started school this past Tuesday. 

When he ended last year back in July, we were in a routine of 

- stanley happily eat his breakfast, but stall like crazy

- stanley whine about going to school and 

- Stanley cry and grab onto us when we go to leave him at school. 

He seems to love school in general once he is there and always talks fondly of his friends at school. However he sure didn't like the transition independent of how many 'maps' we drew of his morning and what was coming, or timers we would set for each action, or discussions the night before, or lack there of discussions. 

We were happy that at least the first day of school was a happy drop of. 

and it helped that his previous nannyshare buddy is now going to school with him.
