Declan's Planet Play

 The Kindergarteners in Declan's Montessori class put on a planet play today in school. He was the sun!! Each of the kids was a planet and they all said a few lines about the planet - it was adorable and the kids had obviously worked really hard to learn all of their lines!

Montessori Trip to the Zoo

 I chaperoned Declan's class' trip to the zoo and got a group of 5 very busy boys!! We had a great time seeing all of the animals and playing in the spray hoses!

Declan's Montessori Music Performace

 The Montessori program had their music performance today.  They were so super adorable! Declan did great and sang every song!  It was the first time that I have seen him enjoy being on stage!

Declan's First Day of Montessori Preschool

 So Declan changed schools today!  He had his first day of full time preschool at the same school as Emmy and Aoife.  He even got to go on the bus and come home on the bus.  We did a dry run at the bus stop yesterday and it didn't go so well. I was a little nervous about this morning but he did great and got on the bus no problem.  It did help that Aoife grabbed him by the hand and dragged him on without giving him a chance to think twice.
I did drive and meet the bus at the school since he had some stuff for naptime that he had to bring.  It was fun to see him put everything into his locker and put his lunch on the cart.  He didn't even turn around to say goodbye - just marched right into class!  He came off of the bus so happy that afternoon and has been happy every morning since!
