School Days

Here is Grace last week before school. She is definitely not a baby anymore and it is sad for Mommy and Daddy. She absolutely loves school and has a great teacher. She is 3 1/2 and can already write her name, write all her letters, tell you what letter a word starts with if you say the word, can skip count and add simple problems. She goes on Tues/Thurs. We are learning Bible verses at home (she is on her 4th one), and knows about 10,000 songs! Her favorites right now are Disney movie theme songs (to Mary Poppins, Peter Pan, Cinderella, Aladdin, Beauty and the Beast, etc.).

Oh, sorry, this blog wasn't meant to be a brag book, so I'll move on. Mommies have to do that from time to time.

We rush home after taking Grace to school so Brady can still get his morning nap. But when he wakes up, watch out. We get to play with all of Grace's things that she NEVER wants Brady to touch. Hehehe :) Daddy would die if he saw his son playing with a pink boa, but we have fun.

When the fun is over, "Mommy the slave driver" comes out. Here is Brady mopping my floors. And look how happily he is working! I can never start too early in getting my kids to do all my chores! Ha! I only wish someone would want to help me clean up! At least the dog eats all the crumbs off the floor.

(Okay, I do have have brag about Brady too. He is a great sleeper and says a few words like mama, dada, hi, bye, uh-oh, juice, etc. He signs a few things too. And we are just praising God that as he gets older the constant crying is going away. Mommy still has to be close, but I think we are making progress.)
