Preschool Graduation


What perfect excuse to make a big deal, right? Well, normally I totally would, he's my first!! But he will be going to one more year of preschool before he starts kindergarten so no big after party or graduation cake. Nana and Papa came to cheer him on and I know that made him feel special. He had a little speaking part that he memorized and did so well when it was his turn. He is quite squirmy and could hardly sit still in his chair for the program. Luckily he has more time to practice. I am amazed at how much he has learned this year. He started out not knowing how to write any letters and coloring crazy all over the page and now he can spell his name and color details in the lines!! I'm excited for him to learn more and for the fun experiences ahead of him. Thank you Silver Pups and we'll see you next year! :) Now what am I going to do with my rowdy 4 year old all summer????

Can you fast forward 13 years and picture these guys at high school graduation? Best Buddies!

Kindful

Lukas saw me cleaning the kitchen today and came over to help. I told him he was my best helper. And he replied, "Yea, I saw you and wanted to be kindful." I love my little kindful helper!

Lukas' Thoughts on Marriage



Lukas' CTR5 teacher told me today that another girl in Primary (Kylie Kener) said to Lukas, "I'm 4 years old and you're 4, and so we could get married."

I wanted to know what he thought about it so I said, "Do you want to marry Kylie?"

He said, "No."

I was thinking, he said no b/c he didn't get along with her, but instead he said, "I'm not big yet. I'm not a daddy. When I'm a daddy or a mommy then I can get married."

So then I asked him, "So when you're big do you want to marry Kylie?"

And he responds, "No, I am going to marry you."
