Last Day of Pre-School, and our First Rain-gutter Regatta...

Ethan got some new jammies from Oma and Opa when they went to Vegas and every morning he told me he wanted to wear them to school. I told him we could ask if they were going to have a pajama day. His teachers thought it was a great idea! He was so excited to wear his m&m shorts to school that day!

On the last day of pre-school the kids put on a show and they all got a certificate for "graduation".

He was soo proud. My baby is going on to Kindergarten now... Boo hoo! He's growing up!

Britton had his first Rain-gutter Regatta. The boys both had fun making their own boats and Ethan was able to participate in the "Open Category", it was a lot of fun.

Both the boys did a great job. Britton didn't win and he was fine with that. He had a lot of fun.

By the time it was Ethan's turn to race he had broken his boat in the practice pool so Britton let him use his.

Ultimately there were only three contestants so Ethan was awarded a trophy. This was when Britton fell apart! He was beside himself with sadness. He had me balling right along with him. I knew that Ethan would get a trophy because there were only three of contestants, but I couldn't downplay Ethan's win to make Britton feel better, that would not be fair.

All I could do is hug him and rock him... Then daddy and his infinite wisdom, thought about it for a minute and explained that Ethan could not have won if he didn't have Britton's boat so the trophy was both of theirs. It took a little time for him to calm down but he was fine with that and now the trophy sits on Britton's dresser and they are both so proud of it. "Phew"! That was a tough one!!!
