In Ellie's preschool haul...did she not say she's going to work on these things with him until the end of the summer and then judge if she's going to send him to school in the fall?? And now suddenly in the vlog, he's starting school tomorrow?? (Or today, I guess.) Am I losing my mind here or what?!
I get Ellie tearing up about Jackson starting school, I think that's pretty normal to do (and I'm actually pleasantly surprised to see some emotion coming from Ellie having to do with Jackson). BUT, Jackson just turned 3. You don't start preschool when you're 3, and certainly not in the middle of February. If Jackson is getting sent anywhere, he will be sent to daycare which may hold some educational value, which pisses me off. I don't even want to get into the fact that they have nothing but time on their hands, and that anything he's going to learn there he could easily be taught at home (even by Ellie).
Am I wrong here? Someone please tell me I missed something. FFS

In Utah, if you want to send your kid to preschool you have to pay for it monthly. Also, a lot of stay at home moms here open up their own little preschool in their home and neighbors/friends will sign their kid up for their program. If I remember correctly, when Ellie first mentioned that she was going to put Jackson in preschool, she said that she talked to a girl she knew (a friend or something?) and they were able to work something out and sign Jackson up for preschool. I'm assuming that means that, yes, February is in the middle of the school year, but Ellie knows a girl who runs her own preschool from her home and she was willing to let Jackson into her preschool despite it starting awhile ago. I think it was a sort of spur of the moment decision for Ellie.
