Two More Reasons to Love My Michael Man

  Two things happened this week.  First, my boys go to a classroom, after school, while I have duties to attend to.  The woman who works in the room has asked my children to put up the chairs, since they're hanging out in there anyway.  Yesterday, they both grabbed an iPad from the desk.  None of the chairs were put up.  When asked to help, Michael gave in while Carter continued to play.  The woman called Michael over when he was finished and offered him two packets of Smarties for the work he did on his own.  He refused them both saying, "Oh no, my Mom says that I can't have those if I'm not going to share them with my brother." *BEAMING*

 Then, tonight, I looked in Michael's Freddie folder (the communication folder between teachers and parents) and found a paper titled "A Future President."  The picture he drew is of a blonde person with blue eyes and many eyelashes.  It reads as follows:
  "My mom should be president.  She gives speeches of love.  She takes care of us in black outs.  She maks good choices ubowt youth kids.  My mom would be a good choices."

I LOVE HIM!!!  Speeches of love...my favorite part. 

Carter's Dreams Are Coming True

Carter's school is approximately 30 minutes from our house.  Four days a week, every week since he started school driving two hours a day sure adds up.  Yesterday, Carter was injured by another child in his class.  The teacher and assistant said they would not have known anything happened to Carter if the child who injured him hadn't been throwing a royal fit.  Because of the injury, Brian had to see the woman in charge of the county pre-school program.  While she was apologizing up one side and down the other for the injury, she asked Brian if we would be interested in changing Carter's class.  This had nothing to do with the incident with the other student.  Our elementary school pre-K has an opening!!!  We jumped all over that opportunity!  Starting Tuesday, Carter will be able to ride the bus with his brother!!!  He has been asking to ride said bus since Michael's first day of school last year.  My life just got a LOT easier!  Maybe I can actually get my homework done during the day?  ;º)
