Kevin's School Progress

Kevin and Benjamin had school two days in row this week because that's what worked with our schedules.  The first day we at our house.  We learned about the letter 'B'.  I hadn't decided for sure what we were going to do so the night before Ryan told Kevin he'd learn about a color or the letter B.  Kevin went to sleep saying he was going to learn about the color 'B' at school.  Not quite.

I was surprised at how much 'B' stuff I had to make learning fun.  We started with a little song on the magnet-o-letters toy.  Then glued balls (and feathers) onto a big 'B'.  After that they had recess and blew Bubbles.  Snack was bread, butter and banana and we finished up by threading bead and bell bracelets (or necklaces).

They both came to pick Kherington up from school and it was so sweet watching Kherington hold both their hands for the walk home and making sure they stopped and looked both ways before crossing the road.  She is such a sweet big sister/friend. She noticed their 'B' jewelery right away and wanted to make sure she could make one too.  As soon as we got home I set her up making one.

Jenny hosted today, which meant I got my house to myself for a couple hours (last week when she hosted Kherington was home 'sick'...she totally faked it...not cool).  It was perfect timing because I was able to get our clothes packed up for our upcoming UK trip.

They learned about the letter 'C'.  The boys decorated a 'C' and got to watch a neighbor cut a fallen tree and load some of the branches.  Plus she made hot dogs and carrots for lunch which my kids devoured.  As we were driving away Kherington started telling me how it was going to be sad when we move and we can't see Jenny and Seth and Benjamin.  So true.
