Pre-School


Her brother is missing her already!

Ella started "pre-school" today and was SO excited! We are doing a little "joy school" this year with 4 other little girls and she is very excited about it. Each week a mom takes a turn teaching the lessons and that way since there are 5 girls you only have to teach every 5 weeks. I was a little nervous about it, because I really don't want her to grow up and I like having my two little munchkins home, but she really wanted to do it. She said she had a great first day and she loved making new friends. When I asked her about it when she came home, she said, mom it was really fun, we did TWO crafts! She loves them! When I asked her what she learned she said " Mom I didn't learn anything! (with a REALLY big smile on her face!) I am sure she learned something but was having too much fun to notice! As for Cavin and me. Well, we undertook potty training a week ago, and this kid is doing awesome! He really wanted to and has done great. He goes when he says he needs to and understands really well. Now, we ALL know potty training is a process, not a task you can just check off, so he still has a long way to go before I am not hyperventilating at the store, but so far, I can't complain! (we still have to figure out the #2 thing, right now he just decides not to go for a few days!) Anyway, it was weird having him all to myself, but he is my buddy and we had fun! I can't believe my kids are getting so BIG!

Jonas did that too and after like 4 days I had to give him and anema (not sure how it's spelled) otherwise he would've popped, I'm sure. After doing that twice, he got the hang of #2
Cavin is a smart kid, he'll get the hang of things quickly. Good luck!

Time flies when you are having fun. Then they go to preschool, and you realize it went by too fast.
