Preschool Orientation

Yesterday we went to the neighborhood elementary school, Tommy Smith Elementary, for preschool orientation. Florida has an amazing pre-K program. The students have to turn 4 before Sept. 1st to qualify so Alan's birthday is just in the nick of time. Their Pre-K program is Monday through Friday (EVERYDAY) and from 7:45am-11am it's FREE then you have the option to pay to keep them at school until they dismiss all the students for the day at 2pm. We are going to pay to keep him there all day for a couple reasons: he needs to be pulled for speech thearapy, the extra time with kids his age will also help speech, and I don't think I can keep up will ALL 3 boys until Daniel gets home from work!!! Here is a picture of his teachers, Mrs. Powell and Mrs. Young. They have 18 students in the Pre-K class. Alan and Eddie had a great time playing while I was filling out the paperwork. The biggest problem I foresee is that we have to walk Alan to the classroom EVERYDAY and it's going to be hard to get Eddie to leave with me!! Keep your fingers crossed as we start this new adventure for Alan on Monday :)

Dreaming of a White Christmas

While a "White" Christmas is something many dream of, I'm pretty confident in saying I dream and pray that this will be my LAST white Christmas!! It's funny how the only things about snow that "stick" in your memory are the snowball fights, snowman building, sledding and FUN!!! Daniel and I decided the boys would really enjoy seeing snow for the first time this year. So we packed up our mini van turned into a sleigh and then hit the highway our destination was 2 days away. Over the highways and byways we glide to grandmother's house we drive. With turn right or turn left we trust GPS to get us there alive. It turns out we have very bad trip coordination with mother nature. She seemed to think this weekend was the perfect time for a blizzard/white out to visit the mid-west. This didn't quite sync with our driving plans. The further north we drove the talk of snow increased until it was finally falling and hitting our windshield. I warned them o...

First Day of School Panic Attack

Okay so most of you know I'm not the emotional mom on the first day of school. Alan started First Grade today and today was DIFFERENT!! I don't know why it was so hard to hold back the tears as the school bus pulled away. I suspect it had something to do with the fact he was riding the bus and I wasn't leaving him in a classroom with a smiling teacher and lots of new friends. Another part of it was knowing he was going to a bare walled classroom with a SUBSTITUTE teacher until they hire a full time teacher for his class. It's a good thing we were early to get to the bus stop. The bus came a full 10 minutes early!! Waiting for the school bus Waiting on the correct side of the street The bus is here!! Joey ran right for the doors trying to get on the bus and was quite upset he didn't get to ride.  He kept saying "I go school, I go school" This is a picture of the school taken from our driveway! A picture of the school close up Our...
