Preschool


So granted I am Cyrena's preschool teacher.....and it's in our home.....but STILL this is her first official week in preschool!

Tuesday was the first day and it was so fun. She has been so excited all summer to have preschool friends come to our house. She was all ready with her backpack, folder and such.

I asked David a few days previous about when he wanted to start doing 'beginning of the school year' priesthood blessings. I told him it was completely up to him when he wanted to start. He decided to start now. So on Monday he told Cyrena he would like to give her a blessing. He explained how this is a "Father's" blessing and was different from a blessing when she's sick. She was SO excited to have this attention from her beloved daddy. She sat completely still the entire time and when it was finished she said "Daddy, why do you have drips on your cheeks?" He just couldn't hold the tears back, poor guy. He's a sucker when it comes to his special girls.

Ok, I am too.

I am super excited to be Cyrena's preschool teacher. She loves to learn and is so eager to help....and try to be the teacher as well. :) In fact she's 'playing' preschool right now with her as the teacher of course. I'm looking forward to a wonderful year with a great group of kids!


My little student

Can you say adorable? Just looking at this makes my heart melt.

I just went to Carson's preschool orientation and it made me miss being the teacher a little. I could never open up my own preschool right now though, because the lady that is his teacher is my across-the-street neighbor and our city has an "at least 300 yards away" rule or something like that. And yes, you look awesome...what is your secret and can I know what it is? :)

So cute and sweet! I love the backpack wall!

When it was school blessing time this year, my darling daughter refused one. Brought tears to my eyes for different reasons :( Oh well, maybe she'll come around yet.... So I guess what I'm saying is, enjoy them while they're still little and so sweet, because it doesn't last long ;)

Tell Cyrena I like her jean skirt. And your sweet David, that is so cute the Cyrena noticed that he was crying. You need to post stuff that makes him look like a tuff guy or we'll all just think of him as a sissy ;0). The back pack wall looks great and I am sad that El isn't there with you.
