in the meantime, we're keeping busy with the answers for preschoolers set at home. we've been taking it slow and are almost halfway through, just in time to break for the summer! jacob loves learning his letters. he can now write most of the letters A to X, and he can write his first and last name with no help from mom telling him which letter comes next.
a week or two ago he recognized the letters on the starbucks sign. "mommy, that sign says coffee!" that's my son! and just this week he asked me to tell him how to spell it. i love this boy.
grandma bought the kids a dry-erase board, and jacob has enjoyed practicing letters and drawing random things on there. here he is with his friend isabel and their joint-effort piece of art... a dry-erase tree. :)

We have decided not to put Tyler in pre-school either. It was a tough decision, but I think it will make life a lot easier not having to run 3 times per week to pickup/drop-off! I spent a couple hours with a mom of 6 (!) and she said they put their first in preschool but none of the others. They are all doing fine and life is much simpler not having to deal with all the various drop offs!
Yea, yea, yea, Jacob!!! And, I support your decision. He's pretty young, yet. We did tumbling for the boys and dance for Rae at 4. They get more socialization and develop motor skills and have fun...not having to sit and be still for long periods at that age but still learning additional disciplines to what they learn at the dinner table, church, etc. Love you guys! XXXX & X for Jackson, too. --Mom/Karen
