The night before kindergarten

I wanted to get Jackson ready for Kindergarten tonight with a book. Jackson and Kendall, our neighbor, got the same teacher and we are just thrilled so I decided to get them together tonight so that they could see each other before school and maybe even have someone to eat lunch with tomorrow. The little get together would not have been complete without Colby so he stopped by too.

We read several books about school like How do Dinosaurs go to School? by Jane Yolen and Mark Teague, It's Hard to Be Five by Jamie Lee Curtis and Laura Cornell, and Shiver Me Letters- A Pirate ABC by June Sobel. This is the one they loved the most! They just loved looking for the letters hidden on each page. It was so cute to see them get into the story.

We followed books with homemade cookies made by Kendall's Mommy, Nicole, and then Bailey, Emma and I sang a song to end the party. We sang "Go Go Go to Bed" to the tune of "Row Row Row Your Boat" from the book Take me out of the bathtub and other silly dilly songs by Alan Katz. Fun times!

Soon after, we hit the sack! It's going to be a early morning and we have not practiced getting up early and all that jazz. Bailey and Jackson are early risers anyway so they will pop right up, I am sure of it.
