Ryker starts PreK


Daddy wanted pictures of Ryker coming off the bus...this almost made me cry! He looked so tiny. He told us at the PreK open house the night before he didn't want to ride the bus (they do rides to let the kids see what the bus will be like) and he wouldn't be taking it home either. Ha! But he ended up loving it! He's the first one off...if he was the last one, I'd probably have to pick up since some kids are on it for nearly an hour! They have an aid, and it's a good way for the kids to get acclimated to bus riding. I still drop off both kids every day, which I'm so grateful I'm able to do!


Ryker sitting on the "R" -- his place at circle time in Miss Jan's room.

This is a self portrait Ryker drew when Miss Jan did her home visit. We hadn't seen it before the open house, and frankly, we were really impressed! All he does for us is scribbles. This actually resembles a person. :-)


Ryker is pointing out friends. If you click on this to enlarge it, you will see Ryker's photo on the "4," with his lovely hair and "wife beater" shirt I couldn't talk him out of wearing for his home visit.

Yesterday was so weird! I suddenly found myself in an empty house for 2 hours. Last year they both went to PreK, but Ry went in the morning and Abby went in the afternoon. Thankfully, our Mexico home group was preparing dinner at church, so I went straight to the church and stayed there most of the time he was gone. Today I'll be running errands -- child-free!!!
