SESAME STREET LIVE

Ready for the show to start
Oscar the Grouch

Wow!

Scott and I took Kate to Sesame Street Live for the second year in a row and she was so excited. She told everyone before going that she would be sitting on the front row and she was. It was so great because all of the characters would come down on the floor at some point and hug her or shake her hand...she was in heaven!

FIRST DAY OF PRESCHOOL

At home before the big day sporting the name tag!

Marking the day outside the front door of school


Running to her class!



Kate with her teacher, Mrs. Lana Perkins...too busy to pose!


Kate wins the prize for being non-compliant!


Well the big day has come and Kate is in Preschool!!! She is going to school 3 days a week at Pinelake Christian Preschool which is at our church and across from PCS where I teach. She rides to school with me and our sweet friend Gayle Matherne picks her up and takes her across the street for school. She was so excited on her first day...I was so scared that I would cry, but surprisingly, I did not! I was quite proud of myself. Thanks to my sweet friend (and parent of one of my students), Dana Graf and her precious daughter Breanna, I was able to leave my classroom to take Kate for her first day of school! She literally ran to her classroom...I could barely get pictures. When we got to her room, all of the other children were sitting at tables playing with playdough and the teacher said, "Kate, come sit down and play with some playdough", to which Kate replied, "No thanks" and hopped over to the toys! I was mortified being a teacher and tried to get her to come sit down. Her precious teacher said, "It's fine if she gets something else out", but I was still completely embarrassed that my child was the only one who wouldn't do what she was supposed to...dear Lord, I know you and I will have lots of talks about this in the years to come!!! :0) The last picture posted above shows all the kids sitting and the teacher talking and Kate hopping around behind her...gracious!!! Scott almost died when he saw the picture and heard the story!
