Thankful Tree

At preschool today, Jack's class made a "Thankful Tree". Each child had a leaf on which was written the thing for which they are most thankful. Jack had 2 leaves. He is thankful for Jesus AND Santa. Smart kid - he's covering his bases. I guess it was too sacrilegious to put those ideas on one leaf as other kids in the class had several things written on one leaf!

In other Thanksgiving news, his friend Abby (who's in the older 3's class) showed me a list of things for which she's thankful. Beside the blank for "friend" that she's thankful for, she put "Jack". Awwwww. When I told this to Jack, he said, "I'm thankful for Abby too, p'tause she's my girlfriend!"

Say hi to Champ, our new 8-week old Black Lab puppy. Champ joined our family this past week and has instantly bonded with all of us. Jack is excited to have a puppy and is learning about puppy energy and licks. Champ spends 50% of his time being incredibly adorable and the other 50% trying to chew everything within reach (my hand is a favorite target)....

Happy Halloween!
