Thanksgiving Preschool Program

The other night Everly had her Thanksgiving program at pre-school.  It was just about everything I could have wanted, and yes, my outgoing child was the only one in her class not to say her name on the microphone.  But that's okay, I couldn't stop smiling at my little pilgrim girl.  Also, seeing her with her little friends, heart melted completely.  When she found out that we were getting to bring Nona and Grammie to school to she exclaimed, "this is SO exciting!".

As a working mom, it's hard not to feel like you are missing out on things.  And I just have to get okay with that.  Thankfully, sometimes you can have a husband help you pretend to be there.  So here's a little look at Everly's Halloween.  And this time - I'm experiencing it the same way as you.

the pumpkin farm!

as a working mom, fields trips with your kiddo can mean a lot of work, just to get ready to go. especially when missing a day means tracking down a sub, writing sub plans, bribing some kids for good behavior, and so on. but man, I wouldn't have missed it for the world.  getting to see everly have fun with her friends at the pumpkin farm was a new experience that made our day very special, and getting to have mommy stay home from school for a day made it even more magical.  grammie playing hookie too, well, there you go!  win win all around.
