Sam's Last Day of Preschool...

...until next year!

In case you can't understand the video, here's the rundown of Sam's favorites:

favorite food: pancakes

favorite color: orange (because that's his Dad's favorite color)

Toy: "lots of cars"

Animal: elephant

Favorite center: firefighter drama center (dress-up, pretend and role-play)

bible story: "Jesus, when He died on the cross - do you remember that one?"

snack: "Cheese, strawberries, and crackers - that's it!"

song: Mr. Sun

art project: "Making a tree"

book: "Penguin on a bus book"

When I grow up, I want to be a "Dad - so I can make all of the rules."

They had a celebration where each kid was recognized and then we headed out to City Park for a picnic lunch. We got sprinkled on, so we ended up eating in the car on the way home, but at least Sam got to play with his friends a bit before the rain started. It was a fun day. Looking back over his Memory Book, we were surprised to realize that at the beginning of the year Sam was 44 inches tall and weighed 44 pounds. At the END of the school year he was 46 inches tall and weighed 59 pounds! Can that be right?! 15 pounds in 9 months?! If so, he weighs almost as much as his older brother!
