Can you believe that we started school last week?? I know it is super early, but we get out the beginning of May. Cotton was ready to go back...ummm.. in May. I love that kid, but I know why they say it takes a village:) it was not my best parenting, however, we survived, and I think I may see a light at the end of my organizational tunnel. Mr. C who will thus forth be called Landon, because Mr. C is annoying to type, and I am not really sure he cares about his anonymity at this point, is back to preschool two days a week, which he also loves. That kid was made for school, I never thought I would want to send my 3 year old everyday, but his appetite for knowledge is huge. For one, he is starting to read, and sadly i don't know exactly what to do with that. I want him to love stories first, so I am just following his lead on that one. He is also a puzzle MANIAC!! Seriously he had two different 100 piece puzzles in one box, and was putting them together side by side ( No he is not on the spectrum... we've checked lol!) I really love this age though, so much to learn and enjoy.
Cotton has become a monster truck enthusiast which pleases me plenty considering that is totally a dad and son thing to do. Again sadly, I am all to happy to sit alone on a Saturday night watching HGTV or better yet... dare I say read a book. A real one with pages, or maybe off my computer screen now that I have found http://www.gutenberg.org/. The boys and I have been cracking through Peter Pan, although darn that Disney, I was trying to introduce it before they saw the cartoon, that way they could form their own images of Neverland, but Disney aired 'Return to Neverland" the other day and I wasn't paying attention, so that idea was out the window.
Rev, oh Rev, he is going to turn me gray, he is a bossy little man. He wants things his way and now!!! Thankfully the little stinker is the best sleeper on earth, or else we might have some real problems (kidding of course). He's too cute, but a handful to say the least. Each child has made me stretch myself further and further to be a better person, and I am thankful for the opportunity.
I feel like I am entering a new phase of life, my babies are really becoming their own people. I just hope I can keep up!
