Today was the school birthday celebration--Gran and Pop came to join me and Dennis' class for his snacktime party. He had a fabulous time, and all the kids loved the Batman decor. I heard one of his friends tell him it was the "best party ever", and he got lots of hugs from his preschool friends. Preschool is a super fun place, and I'm thrilled that it looks like I'll be working there for real next year. I've been volunteering and substituting this year, and if things work out like we talked about today, I will be teaching my own class of 2-year-olds in the fall (2 days a week), and I couldn't be more excited about it! Dennis will be there in his own class the days I'm teaching, and this is the kind of job where I will be free to be with him whenever he's not in school (especially once he's in elementary school). And I get summers, weekends, holidays... What a blessing!
Tonight, we were telling Dennis how tired we were when he said "Do I need to put you to bed, Daddy?" and began marching David toward our bedroom. He is overly tired himself and has been going around red-eyed, so I think we are officially reinstituting the afternoon nap in a shorter version. I imagine we'll have a fight about this tomorrow, but I think it's going to be necessary, especially for him to make it through soccer practice!
