Monday School

He looks a little nervous...
...but he came running out of the car...
...grabbed his rolling Diego backpack...

...ran toward the door...

...and into the frog classroom. Yes, I realize he looks crabby. At this point, he told me to "put the camera away and walk out of the room now."

Long time blog readers may recall Ella participating in Monday school the year before she started kindergarten. It's at a local church that's right around the corner from our house. The program is 3 hours long every Monday and costs a dollar. A DOLLAR! Even aside from it's rock bottom prices, this program is so great. The kids are divided into 2 classrooms: The butterflies and the frogs. He's a frog and he's so excited about it because Ella and Myles were frogs, too.

I went to pick him up after his first day. The teacher told me that he said "I kinda miss my Mom...................but you guys are pretty nice." I asked him how it went and the only thing I could get out of him was "AWESOME." I'd say that's a pretty good endorsement. If any of my local friends want more information on Monday school, just let me know.

The best part of Monday school is that it just happens to be down the street from Ella's school. Her recess is from 11:45 to 12:15. When I walk by her school to get Luke, I get to see her and when Luke and I are walking home, we get to see her again. I love it, she loves it, Luke loves it...it's a win, win, win.
