The End of PRE for My NayNay!

After a great year of co-op preschooling, graduation arrived (this was in June, I'm just a little behind)!! The kids were all wonderful and NayNay has really missed seeing them. All summer long he has asked where each of his preschool friends are.

For graduation each mom provided a fun element. We had awards, treats, playing at the park, fun hats, and ...these amazing cupcakes! Each child had their own MONSTER cupcake and if you look right over NayNay's shoulder you'll see a plate of APPLE cupcakes for each teacher.

I really enjoyed co-op teaching in the preschool and would definitely do it again. It was so great to have a break most the time but also have an opportunity to see first hand how my own child was doing. I guess now I'll just have to volunteer in his kindergarten class to see him!

Summer Gardening

This year a friend convinced/showed me how easy it is to garden, starting small. She gave me three pots, suggested three easy to grow items, and my garden was born! The kids helped with the plants, helped with the water, helped the the picking, and best of all, helped with the eating. Our broccoli gave us one good harvest, the peas a good two months of constant picking, and the squash came on so fast, I lost most the harvest. It was great and I can't wait to try more and different kinds!!
