Valentine's Day Party

Today was the Jesus Loves Me / Valentine's Day party at Preschool. Gracie is always excited to go to Preschool, in fact Mrs. Christie told me today that she thought Gracie might be ready for school. As always Hayden was very excited to see us and then she was surprised when Mimi showed up too! Mimi got a huge hug and a big smile! Gracie likes to walk around the classroom and check out everything and try to find something to get into. Today was a little different, usually they have all of their parties in the Fellowship Hall but today was open registration for next year so we had to party in their classroom. We got to see them paint, eat lunch and have some Valentine cookies. Mimi wasn't able to stay the whole time, so she actually missed the good parts. After they all got finished with their cookies, they sat down for rug time. Mrs. Christie put 10 hearts on the floor, each heart had a different thing for the kids to do on the other side...for example Hayden's heart said to bark like a dog, and it was a very quiet little bark today. Kierstin's heart said to meow like a cat, and it was a very loud meow. Some of the hearts were a little harder, like to sing the alphabet song, do 10 jumping jacks and say all the days of the week! All of the kids did great, it is amazing how much they have all learned. The first thing I did when we got in the car was ask Hayden if she knew all the days of the week and she does.

This is right before they ate their lunch, watch as Hayden sneaks a peek to make sure I'm watching her, and Gracie has her eyes on Mrs. Sue the whole time...
