Vacation Day 3

3rd day and loving it... I just love having no schedule to follow. This morning was Polar Express day at Andrew's class. I went to school with him to help in the class. I had not helped in a month. I have felt bad I  have not been helping out or anything. So, it was important to me that I helped all day. I was glad too because I was the only parent there. It makes it easier for Mrs. Newman to do the things she wants to do with the kids. I love helping in the class, it is a pleasure for sure. And a Joy to get to know all the class mates and such.

All the kids got to wear their PJ's to school. Only a couple kids didn't wear them. One of the boys wore a robe and another wore his slippers - So adorable! They watched The Polar Express, while each child got to make antlers the first half of the movie. We took a break and did some jumping and skipping outside to burn some energy and then back in for the last half of the movie and to decorate the cookies I baked and some hot chocolate. I think the kids had a lot of fun. 

Today was also a special day for Andrew. This month Andrew got the character award. He looked absolutely adorable, and as Andrew is the youngest child in his class, I think he is doing a good job.
