I think we're making progress with Ian's transition to Kindergarten! Yesterday he talked a lot about what he did during his day at school. It is still sad when we head to school, but no more tears and he is getting the hang of it. Ian does still ask what Gavin does when he's not at his school, so I try not to talk about what we do. If I ever told him that we went to Grammie's and Pop-pop's and hung out with them for a bit, then that would NOT go over very well with Master Ian! Oh no! I was able to volunteer at the Book Fair yesterday when Gavin was in school. It was neat to interact with other parents and teachers and see what goes on. Not only is this whole Kingswood thing new to Ian, but it's new to us as well.
Ian brings home his Monday folder with all sorts of work he has done, newsletter and homework for the week. He works on his homework Monday afternoon and Tuesday morning, so he can remember to return the work! So, I was going through one assignment he did in class. The directions said something along the lines of color the pictures that begin with B. Well, Ian colored all the pictures (including items that did NOT start with B). So, I read the directions to him and pointed to a picture. I can't remember exactly what the picture was, so let's say it was GIRL. He said, "Girl." I said, "What does it start with?" He replies, "G." I reread the directions to him and asked why he colored the girl. He said, "Well, I wanted every picture to have some color to it, so I colored them all in." Mind you...he colored the apple at the top of the page that was part of the unit sheet as well. LOL LOL UGH!
Gavin had a great day at school yesterday, of course! Cailean had yesterday off since he got home late from fixing a plane. Both of us went to pick him up and he talked our ears off! He just loves going to school! I sent in his book order form yesterday morning (had it in the parent pouch) and I overheard Ian explain to Gavin what he needs to do with that. How cute! He painted a beautiful picture for us. Not sure exactly what it is, so I'm going to say it was an abstract painting. He used yellow!
We're headed to soccer practice tonight. It's a full family deal. I help Rob run practice, Cailean assists and Gavin plays with the siblings of the kids on the team. It's great!

I'm so glad Ian is doing better! There's nothing wrong with wanting a little color on his sheet, maybe he use one color for the pictures that start with the right letter? hahahaha
Soccer practice sounds like so much fun! We need to see some more pics!
