I officially have one kindergartener and one preschooler. This is so bittersweet for me. I've enjoyed volunteering at the co-op preschool and have made such great friends and pretty much got use to the routine for the last five years. Now I've got to start another routine, one that would involve trusting another adult for nearly eight hours with my child. I can still volunteer and do all the fun stuff at the elementary school but our co-op is small and wonderful. If you have preschool aged children I really suggest you consider enrolling then in a cooperative preschool where your presence is needed. I've learned so many different ways to communicate with my children, which I don't think I could have at a drop off preschool. There's a closeness in a co-op that a PTA can't duplicate. I'm happy I've got one more year with my youngest. I have a feeling I'll go a little over board this year with parties, holidays, and other events.
