Fridays are fun and busy mornings for us. Bennett and I drop Orelia off at school at 9:00 and then head over to the coffee shop to kill time. Bennett really wanted a pouch, but they didn't have any, so he had to settle for a yogurt this week. ("Peet's no have pouches. Bennett ate a yo-yurt!")
Bennett's preschool starts at 9:30 so after our little snack we head over to class where we are inevitably one of the first people there.
This Friday I brought my camera because the skies had parted and we had our first sunny Friday in awhile.
Bennett was happy to be reunited with all his favorite school trucks. He calls this one "little tiny dump truck."
He loves the ball pipes and is thrilled every time he gets the tennis balls to come out the other end.
We had a good round with the stomp rockets, and Bennett dutifully collected all three rockets while simultaneously refusing the put the fire truck down.
Drought-ridden California has had quite a bit of rain in the past two weeks, so a dry day at preschool is a lucky day.
Bennett is usually eager for snack time, where he inevitably spills his water all over the table and refuses to eat most of the food offered. Ha!
If Bennett is in the mood, he loves the books during snack time, and always chimes in when he has something to say.
When it was cleanup time, Bennett sneaked off when he got bored and hopped onto the zebra.
No toy is more exuberantly played with than a toy that is supposed to be off limits.
Our nanny picks up Bennett after school gets out, and I run to the grocery store to get Orelia some lunch for when her school gets out a half hour later.
Some after school lunches are more fun than others, and this Friday's was great since the weather was sunny (a must for Orelia) and some friends were coming to the playground to have a play date with her.
Friday in the middle of class Orelia and Bennett spotted one another through the gate that separates their play yards. Thankfully they were able to say "hi" and "bye" to one another with smiles on their faces (instead of tears).
Orelia was all about the giggles on this particular day because she has been playing "super kiss" with me where she gives me a kiss and then laughs right into my mouth.
When a four-year-old finds something funny, it is absolutely the funniest thing ever.
This is the face of someone about to attack me with a super kiss. Run away!
It was a great day for both kids, which means it was a great day for me. Being able to capture it on "film" was the icing on the cake for me.
