School Easter Egg Hunt

Friday, Kevin and I went up to Will’s school to watch him have his very first Easter Egg Hunt! Somehow we were the only parents in Will’s class to go – guess we were more excited than the other parents. I thought it was a big deal! (Other parents went, just none from Will’s class). Here he is pretty excited about heading out. I don’t think he knew what we were doing, but he knew we were doing something exciting and that mommy and daddy were there to watch.Unfortunately it had rained the night before, so they had to hunt eggs in the hall. Not too much of a challenge, but I don’t think the kids cared at all. Will got off to a good start. He was way more interested in finding out what was actually in the eggs. How in the world was he supposed to be enticed to pick up more eggs when he opens one and finds a ball in it?!? Overall I would say his first hunt was a success! He seems like he is proud and telling daddy all about it. We really got to see him perk up when Ms. Olga pulled out the bag of balls! Our child was the only one that seemed that excited but he was right there ready to scoop one up. We also saw him push this little wheeled thing around. I’ve heard about his skills with thing. It was funny to see him in person. Apparently he does this every day on the playground. He is a maniac. He almost ran me over pushing this thing around. His teachers frequently comment on how “busy” our son is. Busy, indeed! We hung around for a little bit because we never get to visit during the day to see what sort of fun things they do. They all sat down and the teacher was singing songs. He’s so cute sitting at the table in that little chair! One of his apparently favorite things to do at school – wash his hands! He washed them twice while we were there. Glad he’s so concerned with cleanliness!Not the best picture, but I wanted to get one with Ms. Olga. She is an amazing lady and is so sweet with our Will. She is so patient and gentle. We love this woman! She’s great with him. We also love his other teacher, Ms. Marisha – but she was out on Friday. I’ll have to get her picture another day.

Fun times at Will’s school! He learns so much there. It is fun seeing him in his school environment. He has really thrived in his big boy class. Thankful for his wonderful teachers!
