School Days

Owen goes to school everyday from 8-3pm. He LOVES school and can't wait to go each day. But it's taken me some time to adjust. For the past 2 years, Owen has been by my side everyday, all day, which I love. So I do find myself missing him during the day. But I have found the witching hours between 4 and 8pm (mom's you know what I'm taking about) to be much more enjoyable since I haven't seen Owen all day long. So that's a great thing!

Here's a picture of Owen and his friend. They are in class together with 9 other 2 year olds. Owen's teacher said this is the most active 2 year old class she's ever had. I'm just glad she didn't say Owen is the most active 2 year old she's ever had.

Last week at school they read the story of Noah's arc and learned all of the colors of the rainbow. He is learning all kinds of new things at school, including sharing with friends. When your living room is shared with 3 other families, you can't help but learn to share everything you have with each other. It's a great lesson to learn, but a hard one for a 2 year old. Today at church we learned the verse "God loves a cheerful giver." Owen will have this one memorized by the end of our time here :)
