Liam is loving preschool so far! He is pretty upset that he only gets to go 2 days a week. I can imagine that to a little kid having 5 days in between when you get to go would be hard. He was asking me Sunday if he got to go to school the next day. When I told him no he said he wished he could just live at school instead of at our house. It made me feel a little better when he said he wished we could all live there with him.
We had a parent association meeting on Monday. I went not realizing that they were electing new officers (President, Vice President, Secretary, Treasurer and a couple others). There were probably only 15 parents there out of the 3 preschool classes so I was nervous that I might be guilted into volunteering for something even though I know that I am at my stress limit right now and can't take on anything else. Thankfully there were a few other parents willing to volunteer. At the meeting I was talking to Liam's teacher and she told me that on the first day she was sitting and talking with the kids and telling them it was okay to feel nervous and excited, that she was nervous and excited too. Liam raised his hand and said, "I'm not nervous, I'm just excited!" Because I am in Primary with him each week his comment doesn't really surprise me.
I try to get him to tell me about what he has been doing but he doesn't have much info for me. Apparently there are just too many things to tell and too many kids to remember all of their names yet. Luckily I volunteered to help out in a couple of weeks so I'll get to see what its like. He did tell me that his favorite part is recess. I guess they call it "play time" but he told me he calls it recess because he knows thats what its called. (This might give you an idea what its like to get him to do/understand anything he has his own ideas about. We spend lots of time explaining to him that we are much older and know more about most things than him...)
PS. The shiner is still here. Its sort of in it's yellowish phase so hopefully that means it will be gone soon!

I love it. He is so cute and opinionated!! That's great. I'm glad he's enjoying preschool and that's fun you get to volunteer there. How is Jonas coping with him being gone?
That's great! The Kindergartner really loves school and is always bummed when he has a day off.
