Random musings

Several weeks ago, mama and daddy took me to visit a school. The lady in charge took us for a tour. I walked through the classrooms and saw all the other kids and I was just so excited. It looked like so much fun! I tried dragging mama into the different classrooms because I wanted to go and join in. By the time we got to the two-year-old room I was in heaven. I tried dragging mama in again and she just said to go in and check it out. She sure didn't have to tell me twice! LOL.

Anyway we really liked it and I went to my first school day there this week. I took a backpack and everything. In the two-year-old class I have to have a grownup with me and yamma D went with me this time 'cause daddy was off playing at the dentist office. This year will be fun, but next fall will be even better...I get to go all by myself three days a week! I can't wait!

And me on my first day!




We were reading the Thomas Train book and there was a nice big head-on picture of Henry. Mama was reading the page and I took my finger and covered up one of Henry's eyes. I let mama finish reading the page, then I said, "He's a pirate!"
YARRRR!


Mama has been teaching me about coins a little and we've been reading the "money book" a fair amount. Recently I started holding nickels up to her and telling her what was on them. At first she thought I was saying "mr yellow" and she was correcting me, that no, it was Thomas Jefferson. But then she figured out that I was telling her it was "Monticello" on the back of the nickel. She thought that was great. I do it all the time now when I've got a nickel.

Mama and daddy went to a grownup party a few weeks ago. I got to have a real live babysitter. It was Emily from next door. She played with me and read me books and put me to bed. So cool! We had a good time.
