A LITTLE LATE...


...but surely blog worthy! On August 11 Wyatt started his very first day of Pre-school! Thanks to my sister-in-law, Janet, we were able to find a great place to go to. It's called Academic Accolades...and Greta Sue Figueroa is the awesome teacher! Jared and I got to meet her and her assistant, Sheri, a couple days before school, and I was really impressed with both ladies. Wyatt is such a "people person" and a very smart little guy, so I knew he would really enjoy going to pre-school, and fter he got to meet Miss Greta I knew he would have a great time! He did give me a hard time on the way to meet her. He kept telling me, "Miss Greta is naughty." But as soon as I mentioned that she had play-dough and puzzles, he told me that he wanted to go see Miss Greta.
I was really excited for his first day of school and we got to the classroom early enough so that I could take some pictures and hang around for awhile. Right away Miss Greta read the kids a book, and after that Wyatt didn't even care that I was there. I didn't think that I would get emotional (he's only gone 3 days a week for 2 hours!), but I did feel a little sad. My baby is growing up, and although this is a small step, it is a STEP! The next step is kindergarten, and then elementary school ALL DAY! I realize that even though I am still teaching him at home, he is now around other people that are teaching him also. Have I taught him well up until now? Wyatt's first day of pre-school was perfect, and he told me that he wanted to go back the next day! Yeah!

Dr. meaning Dr. Williams? I can't believe that Wyatt is going to Preschool, he looks so grown up!

Hey Christine! It's pretty east. Just go to your layout and click on "add a gadget" (on the right side). Then a window will pop up and click on the first option called "blog list". You will have to input each address one at a time, which will take some time if you have a lot of friends! It took me about an hour so make sure you have time! After you input all of your addresses, go through and delete your current list of friends. Otherwise, you'll have two lists of friends. Also it doesn't work with people with private blogs but I put them in anyway. Let me know if you have any questions or problems!!! Good luck!

Congrats on having a "pre-schooler". I have been toying with the idea of getting Kate enrolled in something around here. I know she's still a little young, but I think she would absolutely love it. Sorry about the nose. That doesn't look good at all. Not fun, poor boy.
