Harrison and school


So we are 11 days into the school year and Harrison asks me when is summer vacation. Too much "Phineas and Ferb" this summer I guess. Actually he is settling in very well. His course of study right now is about Egypt. He was especially excited to take his dad's pictures of the Great Pyramids to school, as well as some Egyptian money. I think it made him the most popular kid in class. I guess we have the military to thank for something.
The other thing Harrison loves about school is his teacher, Mrs. Vinchattle. Yesterday at dinner he asked, "Mom, did you see Mrs. Vinchattle today?" and I said "Yes, when I dropped you off". He then said, "Didn't she look beautiful". My little guy has his first crush, and on his teacher no less. Who can blame him? She is all of 25 or 26 and cute as a button. Hopefully she doesn't break his heart.

T-Ball Time



For the first time so far we had perfect baseball weather. It was warm and you didn't need a blanket and coat to be comfortable. The little boys, who could barely sit still on the bench for 30 seconds a week ago, were sitting in their batting order and almost keeping their hands to themselves. The biggest improvement came when a ball was batted only three or four kids went after it rather than the whole team. They are actually throwing the ball toward a base, though no one can really catch them yet. All I know is that they are darling to watch.

Okay, so I'm a lousy blogger, but I'll try to do better. I have to post pictures of my cuties. Harrison is obsessed with Indians right now, so we had to face paint. He directed the whole process and even showed me the picture in a library book. He even wants to be bare chested. I'm not sure if they all wore jeans back then, but at least he didn't request a loin cloth!
