Don't count the hours in the day. Make the hours in the day count.

"All children need a laptop. Not a computer, but a human laptop. Moms, Dads, Grannies and Grandpas, Aunts, Uncles - someone to hold them, read to them, teach them. Loved ones who will embrace them and pass on the experience, rituals and knowledge of a hundred previous generations. Loved ones who will pass to the next gneration their expectations of them, their hopes, and their dreams." - General Colin L. Powell

End of Preschool

Andrew finished his first year of preschool today.  I can't believe how fast it has gone by.  He's kind of sad because most of his classmates will be going on to kindergarten next year and he doesn't really understand why he can't go.  But I know he'll have fun again next year.  They had their party at a park and had a little program at the beginning where the kids sang a few songs for the mommies and daddies and then they handed out certificates for the kids.  While the kids were singing, they were being really quiet.  Miss Amber asked them to do it again louder.  Another parent said, "Are you even singing?  We can't hear you."  Andrew responded, "Our mouths are moving, aren't they?!"  What a little smarty mouth. 

He'll also be finishing up soccer and is looking forward to swimming lessons this summer.  He doesn't know it yet, but we'll also be doing the Summer Movie program.  What a deal.  10 movies for $7.  And he has only seen half of the movies.  I'm not sure how Luke's going to do, but I'm sure he'll think it's fun.  So much summer fun to look forward to!

Fun summer stuff ahead! I've never been brave enough yet to do the summer movie thing. The idea of trying to corral four kids during a movie when at least two won't sit still at all is too intimidating.

I'm not sure I'd do it if I had more than two. I figure I still have one hand for each one of them. We'll see. At least I know if it doesn't really work out that I'm not out too much. :o)
