Second Friday! Painting Day!

Hey, we made it to Friday! The twins got out of the car at drop off and walked to their room. I tried to stay away this morning and worked with one of my teachers on the other hallway. They were very excited about show and tell. G girl had picked her Big Minnie Mouse from Disney, cute and she loved it! Another girl in the class had one too. G boy had picked one of his daddy's fire trucks. Their dad had so many fire trucks in his collection and the boy knows that they are his now. So it caught his teacher off guard when he talked about how special it was because it was his dad's. She said it made her tear up. I am so glad and proud of how my twins have handled their father's death. We talk about him often and when they want too, but we never dwell on any sadness, heaven is a place of love, security and God. What a blessing that we have come to such a good place with his passing. He left behind the best part of him, them. I am so lucky to love them each day and watch them grow in their faith in God and their love of Jesus. We ate dinner early and went to Target and Walmart shopping for flashlights for Flashlight Friday, we didn't have ours yet. We also had fun painting in Kindergarten today! I had a RED painting project for the class today. They made watermelons! Fun, and I took the funniest pictures of the kids with their mouths open! I am putting the pretend watermelons in their picture mouths. It will make a cute bulletin board for the classroom. The girl was OK with me, the boy freaked out, he just wanted me for himself or him and his sis. It is hard for him to see me in a different role then just mom. We are going to have to work on it, thank God the teacher understands. Tomorrow is soccer meet and greet and the big TEXAS game! It was a wonderful RED week, even though we had a bit of a sickness. Hope ORANGE week starts with a BIG WIN tomorrow!
