the longest week

Day 1 of the long week ahead is complete! Dennis (Captain America) spent his morning with Gran while I worked at the preschool (he doesn't have class on Mondays). They had great superhero fun, and when I arrived to pick him up, he was in full Captain America dress. Gran had cut out a white star for his chest and rigged him a red and white striped belt (which is awesome because now I won't have to). What was even more awesome than that was that Gran and Hobbs were wearing white stars as well, Gran's taped to her shirt and Hobbs' taped to his head. I could tell that some serious fun had occurred, and they told me about their picnic and playing on the playground, which happened at our house while they were supervising the laying out of materials for the pouring of our new porch (tomorrow!!).

Dennis and I both took afternoon naps before going to Taekwondo class, his last before he tests for the next belt on Thursday. The rest of the week will be filled with preparation for the Halloween festivities that will happen at the end of the week, a parade through downtown and party at the preschool and a family party over the weekend. We have three afternoons of afternoon care at the preschool (our last three!), and a long night at the gym on Thursday, and trick-or-treating on Monday. And I'm so tired just reading this that I think I'm ready to go on to bed. Though Dennis assured us "I will NOT go to sleep unless you read me another book," he is indeed asleep.
