Preparing for School!

Now, first let me say, my kiddos are 3 1/2 years & 16 months (today!) They are with me everyday, besides church days when Drake goes to his class & Friday when he has gymnastics & he gets to play with other kiddos! (Or on weekends with his cousins!) So, I always feel like they (Drake mainly) need so much to be prepared for school! Drake is SUCH smarty pants, if I do say so myself :) But, I knew we needed to do more at home to get his skills up to par. We've started our daily Arts & Crafts. He has A LOT of energy, so I was afraid he would take a while to understand you can't run with scissors, you can't tattoo your sissy with the markers, & you can't put the crayons up your nose! (Or your sister's!) This kid surprised me! He loves making things for his mama (of course!) at church, so he thoroughly enjoyed it at home, too! SCORE! Here are some pics of his masterpieces. Note: Not for sale! ;) For mama's filing cabinet (aka SAFE, because I'm a freak) only! Enjoy!
