The trip to the Apple Hut was a ton of fun! A few weeks later, we also went to a Pumpkin Patch and had a really great time riding the train, making popcorn, petting animals of all kinds, and learning about the first Thanksgiving. I also had my very first parent/teacher conference, and it was no surprise that he is excelling and making friends and learning skills well!
The Tuesday before Thanksgiving, me and Grandma Jackie were able to spend the afternoon at preschool with Sawyer for a Thanksgiving feast! Toward the end of the meal, we were treated to a song:
"Hello, Mr. Turkey, how are you? (Clap, Clap)
Hello, Mr. Turkey, how are you? (Clap, Clap)
With a gobble, gobble, gobble,
And a wobble, wobble, wobble,
Hello, Mr. Turkey, how are you? (Clap, Clap)"
It was adorable! They all had either a pilgrim hat or indian feathers on (Sawyer was a pilgrim) and had a sign around their necks saying what they were thankful for (his dog).
Now we are back into a full week of school with just a few short weeks to go before a Christmas show and then a long break. In 5 days, he will be 5 years old already and his party will be the following weekend! I had hoped to make some treats for his class but there's just too much else to worry about. It's a very exciting, busy time of year! :)
