The Christmas Story

“Mommy, did you get my Christmas Story?”

“I did! I love it!” “Were you so surprised?” he says.

“Yes! I love it!” “Mommy, Can I read it to you?”

“Please! I can’t wait” I say, as Levi grabs a book he made at preschool and curls up on my lap.

Then, my newest 4 year old proudly turns these pages and retells me about our Savior's Birth!

Precious! Precious! Precious!

Celebrating Thanksgiving

Today, I was so blessed to be able to CELEBRATE Thanksgiving at a Thanksgiving Feast with Zachariah’s Pre-K class:) He was allowed 2 guest and although he choose “Mrs. Vicki and her cat” He got stuck with Mom instead of the cat!

I love that his teacher ask the guest to sit down first and the kids LEARNED how to serve others first! IMG_7106

Such a great lesson he learned today!

He sang a precious little song.

Nursery Rhyme Day

My sweet Triple Smiles have the great blessing of attending the most wonderful Christian Preschool near our home. They recently celebrated learning Nursery Rhyme’s by allowing the children to come to school dressed as a Nursery Rhyme character.

Thursday, We visited a neighboring city’s “Safety Town” My middle son arrived a Safety Town barefooted. When I asked him “Where are your shoes?” He casually replies…”At home!” This fun family adventure features a full sized mock fire truck and a little town. When the kids get older they can drive electronic cars around the roads and even pay a toll through a toll booth!

Friday, some dear friends came to town and we went to the Magic Time Machine. Characters of all kinds wait tables and do a great job of entertaining the children through dinner. Our waiter was a pirate.safetytown 019

The children were served “Bubbly Drinks”

But the HIGHLIGHT of the evening, is when Levi met his hero. He was honestly speechless, but only for a moment. After he regained his speech, he told Woody “You are missing your string, you can’t talk without your string!” Too funny.
