Micah's Preschool

Micah's birthday is 6 days from the state deadline and would make him very young in his kindergarten class. Kids have such a short time to be young and unfettered, so we're considering keeping him home another year so he can be as prepared as possible. All the mothers I've talked to who have done this have been glad they did. Because we're not sure, I have him in neighborhood preschool groups with his older buds (Tuesday morning) and younger buds (Thursday morning). He loves preschool, he feels so grown up and loves rotating around to the different houses. I do it with a bunch of awesome, fun-loving moms and it gives us all a break on the weeks we're not in charge. Here they are playing duck duck goose this morning (5 of the 7 younger buds, plus Eliza and her friend Joanne). Half of them ran off down the hall whenever anyone said "goose."
You can't see it, but Micah is holding H's hand during Storytime. He seems to have a little crush on her. More mayhem with handprint-painted turkeys. This is how I found my sweet boy sleeping last night. Our field trip to the fire station. Micah was nervous about climbing through the ambulance. Micah's older buds.
Micah really thinks about things. He asked me the other day if chicken eggs get poop on them when they are laid. Whaaaaaa? What would make him think of that? I love you, buddy!

Cute pictures. I wanted to tell you I talked to Evie's teacher about the same thing for Lydia and what her advice was. She said if it's a boy she would with out a doubt. She says girls are a little different you just have to wait and see when it gets closer.

It is so hard to decide I am wondering what to do with Jake. Its hard to make these decisions that will effect really their whole little life. I don't know what to tell ytou but you will know what is best for the little guy.
