Chool

Ryan and I decided a couple of months ago that we would enroll Lily in a "Parent Morning Out" program this fall. We thought it would be really good for her to be around other kids her own age a little more, and we wanted me to have a little bit of alone time with Amelia (when the time comes) like I did with Lily. We decided on Bethany United Methodist Church's program which is close to our home, and we know a couple of people who already have kids there and enjoy it. So on Monday morning, Lily will start going on Monday and Wednesdays from 9 to 1.

This morning was their open house where you go and meet the teacher and see their room, so when Lily woke up I told her we needed to eat and get dressed because we were going to see her new school (we have told her before she would get to go to school). She was so excited and kept saying "chool...chool" over and over again. We met her teacher, Crystal, who seems so sweet, and we saw her room; she had a great time playing with the kitchen, little house, and miscellaneous other toys...she didn't want to leave. It took promising that we would be back soon to get her to leave. I wouldn't be surprised if after naptime she asked me about "chool."

I can't believe my little angel is about to start a school-like program! I know that it is mostly playtime and it's shorter hours, but I still can't believe it. Where have the last 22 months gone? Amelia better not grow up this quickly!

so cute! We are ready for a mothers' day out too -- just for Evynne's sake, not really mine b/c I already have so much help. I know Lily will love it!
