And the countdown begins...

William will officially start preschool on 09/09/08! Oh my goodness that seems just like a heartbeat away right now. We've started a countdown for William at home and he is till oober excited to go! Just 18 days away and we will be starting a new journey. I know he can't wait, but I'm still not ready for him to go.

His dad and I will drop him off on his first day and I'm sure that we will have lots of pictures before and after. Especially of him getting off the bus for the very first time. That is such a big milestone. I can't believe it's just around the corner.

just a few pictures...

moving up his birthday?!?!?!

Yup as if it weren't hard enough to explain to William why he has to wait until his birthday to have another party, try reasoning with the logic of a 3 1/2 year old when they get it in their mind that they can just move that date. Our next door neighbors little girl got a Lightning McQueen powerwheels and a certain little William decided that he wanted one too. When grandma explained that he would have to wait until Christmas or his birthday for one of those type of toys, he quickly responded with..... "But Grandma , my birthday is Saturday, and it's at Chuck E Cheese!"

Yup that's right, he's decided that it's going to happen Saturday. Now with that logic he could just move Christmas up or anything else that he really wants to happen soon. Hard to reason with that, I guess, however, I have never heard of a child moving something like that or even suggesting that it could be moved up.

Grandma tried to explain that it just doesn't work that way, but he wasn't having any of it. I guess I'll have one disappointed little guy come this weekend, but it just was good for a laugh.
