Kindergarten here I come!!

Lukas started kindergarten today. I was much more nervous that he was. It seems so surreal to actually be at this point in life...sending my first off to school. It was fun to help him get ready and pack his back pack. I walked him to the playground and waited for the teacher to line up her class. He got Mrs. Hansen for afternoon kindergarten, which I'm excited about. I'm not a morning person. He was a little shy and timid, but lined up and walked right in without looking back. He was so brave and after school he told me he couldn't wait to go back! Yay, Midas Creek Elementary and YAY Lukas!!!

Off and Riding!

Lukas just recently learned how to ride his bike without training wheels. Pat worked with him several times before, but Lukas would get frustrated and give up before he made much progress. This time, we just took off his training wheels and there he went, no problem! He was so proud of himself. He is still riding the bike we bought him several years ago (which is waaaaaay too small). All his friends are riding bigger bikes, so we want to get him one for his birthday.

Lukas also likes to play with his friends (which include Carter, Holden, Tommy, Jake, Rachel, Madisyn). Every day he wants to have someone over. "Can I have _____ come over?" He is getting ready to start kindergarden and is so excited. He has been practicing his alphabet (writing), which he knows perfectly. He loves to color and write in bubble letters. He is very creative and thoughtful and will color me several pictures a day. His best friend is WOLFIE. They play and wrestle and sleep together. So cute.
