IS NANA HERE YET?
I made the mistake of telling Ashton that his Nana was coming- two days before the actual day she arrived. So, for two days Ashton could often be found at this window waiting for his Nana. He made a list of things he wanted to do when she arrived. The list included- play tag, walk on the bridge, feed the ducks, check the mail, play with the kitty (aka Cleo) and go to the pizza place.He loves his Grandma! When we dropped her off at the airport he sulked and if Tera or I tried to make him happy he would say, "I don't want to be happy right now- I just miss my Nana." That night when I tucked him in bed I asked if he missed his Grandma and he said "yes, she is my best friend." I love to watch them play together!
Ashtons great grandma bought him a big boy spiderman bike. Ashton has went on a ride every day since and is loving it. He looks so big riding down the street!
The Joy of Joy School...
Ashton and Jared- usually the wild ones-
Today was officially the last day of Joy School at my house- what an adventure it has been. I have so much more respect for those who work and teach preschool daily-(way to go Melissa) it is draining to me with just the three boys once every three weeks! It has been fun to watch the boys learn (but mostly wrestle) and through this expereince I have learned that Ashton will probably not start kindergarden until next year. He would barley meet the cut off date for this year, but I am thinking it might be kind for his potential teacher to try to teach him a bit more self control before sticking him in the school system. At this point he would probably end up in the principles office for kicking his teacher and telling him or her that he did not like them and they were not his friend. What can I say? We are doing a great job as parents!!
