I Am Special Open House

On November 29, the preschool that Aleah and Bruce attend had a fun day. They were able to invite a special person to spend the day with them. Grandma Allen accompanied Aleah, and I had the privilege of attending with Bruce. Bruce loves his teacher, Mrs. McHale.



















































































The best thing about music class is that Mrs. A is the teacher. She is also known as Grandma Amstutz. I can't believe what she is teaching them. Aleah's class can tap out the rhythm as Mrs. A shows them what to do. It is amazing. Bruce's class is learning some easier rhythms, but aren't quite as accurate. The favorite song is "Pony Boy" when they get to gallop around the room with their little ponies. Ironically, Aleah and Bruce chose the same ponies when they each were at the Music Station at different times.

Trimming the Tree

We put up our tree and decorated on Saturday after Thanksgiving. Here is the progression. We had a great time making memories. Next on the list? Ornament making for the kiddos. I have wonderful memories of ornament making back in Indonesia. I want to do the same for our children!







They love their stockings and definitely "hung them by the chimney with care." Funny thing is, Aleah was awake at 5:15 the next morning wanting to wake us up to see what Santa brought her. I'm not sure when a good time is to tell her the truth. It sure is cute to see how serious she is about Santa. Hmm.....
