CLUES Crew

The first Wednesday night dinner was tonight for our church. We haven't started school but other counties have begun earlier this month. I think this was a mid-point starting point.

We did not do dinner. We have not been liking the meals very much last year. And, with the way they are doing registration this year, they increased the price. We plan on being a bit more picky when deciding what dinners we will eat.

Anyway - tonight was registration for Children's Choirs. As it was so painful last year with Jacob and Layne getting them to choir we decided earlier to not "force" them to do choir this year. They really did do their best last year at something they did not like at all. So I was very excited when I learned that Karen Hickey decided to start a Wednesday evening group just for 3rd, 4th and 5th graders.

They were a little nervous. Layne was worried that she wouldn't know anyone else. Of course, I reminded her that she would knew Jacob and Miss Karen! They had a good time. They made notebooks to bring with them each Sunday to church and write notes about the service / sermon. Then they will bring their books back to the Clues Crew class each Wednesday and talk about what they heard and learned.

I am really excited for them and think this will get them excited again.

Joshua is still excited about choir.

We also went this morning to Primrose with Joshua so he could meet his teachers for Pre-K and see his classroom. His teachers are Miss Christine and Miss Jessica. He knows Miss Jessica from the end of the year last year before the summer. He was being a little shy at first but when he got in the room he was sooooo excited about all the stuff to see and learn and play with around the room. He had to do every puzzle laid out on the table. We had to talk him in to leaving because he was disappointed he didn't get to play in the kitchen.

He sounded very grown up when he told us "next time I come you won't stay with me, you will leave me here". At least today he seemed okay with that idea. We shall see come Monday morning.

We are slowly getting back in to the swing of things. Full speed next week.
