John Parker started school this week. He seems to be real excited. His teachers are great and they're really into Science. So far they have had a Madagascar hissing cockroach and a "Boxing" turtle as he calls it. He made two pictures for his teachers--one of a bird in a nest and one of a buck deer. Last year if you mentioned him having a girlfriend-- he got really upset and didn't want to talk about it. He told me the other night that he does like a girl (that was in his class last year). He said, "Mama she keeps staring at me during carpool in the afternoon and she even said bye." Bless him!! He's growing up so fast. I told him that he should never feel embarrassed or worried to talk to me. I would try my best to not judge him or get mad. He hugged me so tight and told me that he loved me..... We were in the convenience store the other day and the clerk and one of the customers commented about how polite he was. We're proud that he's becoming such a kind, loving boy. He'll be taking art and karate this year and is really excited about it!
John Parker and Avery love to sing (and dance) to their favorite songs on the way to school. The video shows them singing to John Parker's favorite--Chicken Fried by the Zac Brown Band (or Chicken Fry as Avery calls it) during this morning's carpool. They are so funny!! Just stop the music player below to hear the video!
