Preschool

Emerson started preschool on Tuesday at a local church preschool.  He has loved his first week.  He loves that he gets to take his BATMAN backpack.  He loves getting to play outside with other kids his age.  He loves getting snacks (though this week he got cupcakes everyday since they have been catching up on the summmer birthdays).  Since it is a church Preschool, they learn a lot about Jesus.  They sing songs about him and learn how to pray.
Everyday when Emerson gets to school he has to find his cubby and hang up his backpack and then he finds his name and gets to practice writing his name.  It is awesome the improvement that I have seen even this first week in his name writing.  I can't wait for the end of the year to see how much his writing will improve.
 
Some fun things about Emerson:
 
He loves anything with letters and numbers on it.  One of his favorite things to do in the car is read all the license plates as we pass them. 
He is starting to be a great reader.  He is getting really good at sounding out words and figuring out what they are supposed to say.
He is becoming great at playing pretend.  He loves playing pretend "Lego Batman" and going arond fighting all the bad guys and saving the day.
His favorite pass time is playing the Wii with Daddy.  It is the best part of the day when he convinces Daddy to play Lego Batman or Lego Star Wars with him.
He is a great friend.  He is always ready to give a friend a hug when they need it.  He is the best hugger too by the way.
He is so excited to be a big brother.  He is always talking to the baby and telling us what he is going to share with her.  He also prays for her everyday,
He is the sweetest most energetic kid I know.
