We spend years encouraging independence but once it actually happens, it sure tugs at your heart strings, doesn’t it? Megan went into school today, not with her mom and little brother, but with her new friend Natalie. Kindergarten is full of bittersweet moments!
Remember this post where I was so proud of the fact that Megan was making belly buttons on us when she drew us? Well, we’ve evolved! Not only do we now have arms but we also have hair and clothes and shoes and a dog! I love this picture… and that girl.
Just for the record, Daddy is on the left, Nick is next to him. With the two girls (longer hair), one is wearing a skirt and one is wearing a dress. Megan’s explanation was that I’m wearing the skirt because I don’t like dresses very much. Smart girl!!! Megan almost 5 1/2 38 lbs 3 feet, 10 inches started kindergarten last week and loves it Bikes on her two-wheeler to school and is very very proud of it. Loves to play with her Littlest Pet Shops, Barbies & My Little Ponies Wears a dress or a skirt nearly every day (winter means Mommy has to get sewing!) Looks out for her brother (nearly) all the time. If she’s given a treat, she makes sure to try to get one for Nick also. Very sensitive. Quick to get a bandaid if someone is hurt, quick to comfort if someone is crying, and an animal lover through and through. OK so Megan has gotten way into music lately. A couple weeks ago I showed her how to use her cd player and we pulled out a bunch of our kids cds and Megan’s been loving every second since then. One of her favorite cds is the Barenaked Ladies children’s cd called Snacktime. It’s a fantastic cd and the first song on the disc is called 7 8 9. I’d explain what it’s about but instead I’m going to show you Megan’s picture. It explains it all perfectly…
2 1/2 years old 35 lbs 3 feet, 4 1/2 inches Favorite number is 3. (I three, I go 3 potties, I see three busses, etc. etc.) Loves riding his kick bike Loves playing in the pool Will bowl for hours on end… with anything! cups, toilet paper rolls, 2 liter bottles, blocks, little army guys Still loves his trains and plays with them almost daily Starting preschool in a week. Started Children’s church this past week and actually sat still for two stories! Will pee in the toilet anytime you put him there (although he’ll fight you if he’s doing something else) but is far too busy with life to attempt the whole poop thing. I’m ready to be done with diapers though! Still very cuddly, is happy to give kisses, and provided he isn’t taken advantage of by his sister, is a very laid back little guy. |
