Thanks for participating in the question of the week everyone. It was great to get so much feedback about preschool. I value your opinions so much that I just might make this question of the week thing a regular around here.
Reading through the comments to the question, it is pretty apparent that there are a lot of views on the subject of preschool. I figured there would be. The thing that caught my attention was regardless off the stance each of you took you all put great importance on what was best for your children and family. I love that even though our views might be different we all reach our conclusions by thinking about what is best for our children and families as a whole and not so much what “the professionals” have to say.
So without further adieu, here is my personal stance on preschool…

Again, as I'm at work, I can't watch that video.
I'm going to assume you decided to go with preschool based solely on my comment, and included a lovely homage to melty crayon art at the end of your message.
You're welcome.
Cute vlog. Thanks for sharing your opinion.
I enjoyed reading everyone's responses to yesterdays questions–it's so great to hear what other moms are doing. I didn't send my boys to pre-school and I have no regrets. They are in Kindergarten and 2nd grade now and had no trouble adjusting and–if I can brag–have gotten all A's this year (yay!). My youngest is a little shy but I don't attribute that to lack of socialization. I loved having them home with me. I figured that once they started Kindergarten they would be in school for the next 13 years, more likely 17 years, and possibly longer. So I figured I could have
their first 5;)
Excellent vlog! I'm so in awe of your ability to do an incredible vlog. I tried once, but it took me 987987 times to shoot it properly, and by then I was too tired to finish it. I think I'll get back on the horse again though….especially so I can document this new baby that's in creation! SO excited!
Love the video! And I also appreciate that you're bringing up these points that I had never thought about…
So that when I'm ready, I can ask you for help. 😉
I completely agree!!!
