Back to School!

Well, school has officially begun around here, and it is as if Turner and Parker grew up overnight! They are both really excited about their classes.

Turner was dressed, had all her chores done, shoes on and backpack in hand by 7am on Monday! She was ready! As for her brother...I asked Parker if he was ready for school, and he said, "TRUCKS! BACKPACK!" So, things are off to a great start!

Turner under her new chore chart, with 4 stars! She has to get up, get dressed, brush her teeth, straighten her room, feed the cat, set the table and take her plate to the sink after supper each day. Each activity earns her a star. She gets $1 a week for 30 stars and is working to open a bank account for her 5th birthday! She LOVES this!

And, it has residual benefits, too, because Parker fussed when I took his plate at breakfast today. I thought he wanted more food, but he wanted to take it to the sink, like Sissy! :)

Ready for Pre-K!

Excited and ready to learn and play!

Parker has two wonderful teachers, Ms. Amy and Ms. Sandy. He LOVES it, because there are TRUCKS everywhere! I had to drag him out of there kicking and screaming from the Open House! :) He finally relented and said, "Bye, Truck!" to each truck in the room.

BIG BOY!
