Our little Scripture Star

Chase started his second year of preschool today. When I went to drop him off he told me that he didn't need me to walk him in, he could do it himself. I told him ok, so we pulled up, got out of the car said good-bye and he turned to me and said "you can walk me to the door, but then I don't need you." And he didn't. As soon as we got to the door he walked right in and I heard him proceed to tell his teacher that he had already read 5 books since we meet with her last week for our meet the teacher day, which means he gets his first sticker on his reading chart, only four more to go til he gets to pick a prize from the treasure box, and that's how I left him. Doesn't he look great?? I am one proud mom.

He was so excited to go to school today. He kept asking me all morning long if it was time yet for him to go. I kept asking him "WHO TOLD YOU, YOU COULD GROW UP!??! My little baby boy Chase is officially gone and now in his place I have a big boy on my hands. Which makes me excited and sad all at the same time. One of my favorite things that he does lately is just randomly come up to me and give me a big fat kiss and say I love you. Who wouldn't love that??
All four of my boys. Tay was already at school.

His school is called Scripture Stars. His teacher uses the scriptures and the stories from the scriptures to teach the kids the basics. Genuis. I was looking at his calendar and next week he is learning the story of Adam and Eve along with all things that start with the letter A that our found in the Garden of Eden. Alligator, Adam, Apple. I just know he is going to have a great year.

sounds like an awesome preschool. I'd sure like one like that here. He sure looks grown up. It's crazy how fast it happens.
