Week of Firsts

Brand new school year is now in full swing. This has been a week of firsts for both Marcus and I.

Marcus has started a new session of dance class (combo/tumbling). He had a blast and did great for the first day. He is the only boy this time around but I think he likes being the McDaddy Marcus with all his dancin' girls!!! lol

Today was his first day of Pre-K!! Pre-K...seriously already? Somedays I feel like I just brought him home from the hospital. I look back at far we have both come these past 4+ years. It's amazing what children teach their parents. Pre-K went off great! He helped make teacher survival kits and homemade sugar cookies. He loves giving gifts of any kind to anyone...I just love his generousity and sense of self-fulfillment he gets from giving. He came home with lots of stories from the day...input 4 year old imagination here!

His main excitement for the day was Karate. He has the option to take Karate classes at MDO and this was the first year he wanted to give it a try. He told me that he kicked the shield so hard and knocked down the guy. He was so proud! He was a little upset though that he didn't have a karate uniform so hopefully that will be even more exciting.

Such an exciting year ahead...I can't wait to see what's in store for him as he learns and grows into a young man.
