Prayers
John's latest prayers have been ending like this:
and God bless Aunt Jackie and the baby in her tummy, Miss Shonda and the baby in her tummy, and the baby that will be in Mommy's tummy.
When asked about that statement, he said he wants to have another sister or a brother. Ugh.
Yes, babies have been on John's mind a lot lately. That was the theme in preschool last week, so he was asking all sorts of questions about when he was a baby. It was fun to look back at his baby pictures (those are actually in an album!).

First (and Second) Day of Preschool
After several days of "Is TODAY the day I go to preschool?", John FINALLY started on Wednesday. Knowing that he was so ready and excited, made it easy for me to drop him off...and he was so cute. He and Emma played outside for a little bit before we left since we were ready so early (I know, I know...shocker.)
I picked John up in the pick up lane after preschool and got out of the van to greet him. He came running toward me, so I opened my arms for a big hug...but he ran past and climbed right into the van where a sippy cup was waiting for my VERY thirsty boy. When asked about a day at school, some kids have few words to say. John, on the other hand, talked most of the day. He's got a friend, Zach, whom he knew already from MOPS. They listened to a story about Jesus healing a person and read a book called Spot Goes to School.
Day 2 (on Friday) was good as well. This time he gave me a huge bear hug on the way out. Then this was our conversation:
Me: How was school today?
J: Good, but a ball like a basketball or a baseball hit my head.
Me: (as I investigate the bump on his forehead) Ouch. Was it big like a basketball or smaller like a baseball? (showing him with my hands)
J: Um, like a baseball.
As the conversation goes on, he tells me he was playing ball outside with 3 boys and 2 girls, and the ball hit his head. He says he didn't cry and the teacher did see it.
When I ask if he has any papers for Mommy and Daddy today, he gets papers out...including an "injury/incident" report. The teacher filled out a report about John's injury. Here's what she filled out:
"John was playing in the Blue Room and was carrying a lot of toys when he tripped and hit his forehead on one of the chairs in the room. He was fine and continued to play after teacher checked with him."
John said he never fell in the Blue Room. Odd, huh?

Preschool
John had his preschool open house this afternoon. He's going to be going to Rising Sun Learning Center, which is just on the other side of Pleasant Hill. Very convenient to say the least. Anyway, he LOVED it. Here are some of the highlights for him (although when asked what he was looking forward to most, he said, "EVERYTHING."):
1. Washer and dryer in "the blue room"
2. Butterflies (real ones and the butterfly puppet) and a fish
3. Pet carrier with a dog and a bone in "the blue room", along with lots of dress-up clothes
4. Bathroom (for BIG boys and girls)
5. Puzzles in the "quiet room"
