Lucas' First Day

  
Today was Lucas' first day at his Faith Formation classes with his pre-K group. This is a weekly course from now til April 2012. I am so grateful to be a part of St. Bernadette, and getting my kids involved so early. They both love Janice--the sweetest lady who runs the nursery and pre-k classes. Lucas did well and Olivia had fun in the room next door playing with other toddlers. I volunteer once a month and take them with me so it's basically a playdate :) It's also nice to get to pay attention during mass and truly pray, but at the same time, I get lonely without them sometimes lol.

When I went to get him after mass, Lucas happily walked holding the teachers hand, over to me. He grabbed his little bag he worked on and said, "mommy! bag!" and then "flower, rock!" The teacher and Janice told me they went outside today to learn all the things God made and collect some. He also colored some pages, did puzzles, had storytime and then at the end watched Veggietales. A good day :) Lucas says "bye Janice. thank you". So cute to see him growing up. When I told him at home that he was a big boy at "church school"--he said "backpack!"...he knows that backpacks are synonimous with going to school haha. He carried that little bag around (even during his nap..) and couldn't wait to show daddy his treasures when daddy woke up. (working nights)

Grateful.
