Preschool Program

Jimmy just finished his first session of preschool at the local high school child education lab.  He was quite tickled that he was now “big” enough to go to school, and even though he occasionally had cold feet about actually going in the classroom, he always did really well.  The teachers described him as “shy,” which was news to me!  He loved the gym time, and playing with the rice table.  He can’t wait to go back next year – with Danny next time!

We celebrated the end of his program with a class trip to the bouncy house!

Class Party

Today I got to go to Susie’s end-of-the-year class party.  It was such a treat! Here’s Susie posing with a ukulele she learned to play in music class:

And here she is with her sweet teacher.  They were a perfect match together this year!

(Because of scheduling conflicts, unfortunately I wasn’t able to attend Becky’s party, but she was blessed with an equally fantastic teacher.  We’re going to miss them both!)

Dresser Diving

You know your house is getting boring when the kids think it’s a grand rainy-day activity to go searching for lost toys behind their dressers!

Perfect Spot

Can you make out Becky perched on our backyard swing, quietly reading a book to herself?  Maybe I should try that spot sometime!

Fixed on Fixtures

Danny was pretty pleased he found his reflection in the faucet.  He said he looked like a snowman!
