Mackenzie is really enjoying school. At Open House the teacher sent home a doll pattern, and the children were to decorate it making sure to include something from their heritage. I had my ideas of how it should be decorated and she had her own ideas. Well, her ideas were much better than mine! Just another lesson for mommy to learn about stepping back! She did a great job.
Ethan has had a tricycle and bicycle in our garage that have gone untouched for a very long time. Why? Because he never wanted to ride them. (It didn't help that he didn't know how to pedal.) Hey! It wasn't for lack of me trying to teach him! He just wasn't ready. Well, the time has come and he is now riding his tricycle. Soon we'll graduate to the bicycle.
