Let the egg hunts begin!

I think I have mentioned before that holidays become MAJOR when your kids go to school. This year, every event....Halloween, Valentine's Day, Groundhog Day, you name it...has become at least a five day festival of fun. So, Easter is Sunday. Let the egg hunts begin! Today, I spent the morning at Sam and Stephen's school helping them celebrate Easter. It was crazy and chaotic, to say the least. But we had a really great time.

First of all, let me say that I am so blessed that my kids go to a great school where they are blessed with AMAZING teachers. These women are patient beyond my comprehension. Trust me, I work with Pre-K kids two days and week. Keeping your "patience pants" on is no easy task! These ladies have an extraordinary way with little ones that simply blows my mind. But what gets me the most is they never seem flustered. Never. Not once! Who knew that was possible in a room with 18 preschoolers?!? Amazing Christian women with the patience of Job loving on little guys all day long. What could be better?

I am also blessed that Stephen and Sam's classrooms are right next door to each other. So today, both kids had circle time and an egg hunt and I got to be there for all of it. I got to get all sticky helping Sam's class decorate cookies...frosting (neon frosting, no less), sprinkles..the works! It was a disgusting mess, but it was a hoot!

I got to watch Sam hang out with his Ninja peeps....


I got to see Stephen's favorite swinging technique in action....
I got to play "Hide and Seek" with my littlest one...

And hunt for eggs with my biggest one.....

All in all, a great day to be a "stay-at-home" mom!
