Last Day of Preschool

How can this be? Today was Josh's end-of-preschool picnic. Josh is my youngest. I officially am no longer a mom of a preschooler. Wow. That flew by!

As soon as I get the pics on to my computer I will post pics from his preschool days. He went to the most wonderful preschool--the one Ben went to as well. It was located on a 180 acre nature preserve nestled along the coast of Lake Michigan. They played in the mud, threw rocks in the lake, tapped maple trees to make syrup, went sledding, found critters of all shapes and sizes, and in general delighted in the world God made. That is so much better than ABC's and 123's! He has the rest of his life to learn those. This year he got to have a taste of the back yard I grew up with. I'm so glad we were able to give that to him.

We have had kids in that preschool for three of the last four years. It is strange--and sad--to realize we have no more kids to enjoy watching there! I may have to borrow someone's kids:).
