Grayson ~ Star of the Week

Grayson ~ Star of the Week 

He has been asking every week since the beginning of school when he's going to be the star of the week.  He was so excited to finally have his week of stardom.  The teacher forgot to send the pages home with Grayson, so we were a little behind.  I almost forgot to do to pages because I didn't physically have them, but luckily remembered Sunday night.  Of course I had very little time so it was not the best, but we made it work.  

Favorite Books: 

dinosaur books, super hero books and space books.  

I Am Special Because: 

I can build cool structures (I knew he was going to say this so I went ahead and printed the phrase and pictures and was happy he said the same thing on Monday morning)  Luckily he had just put this amazing structure together so I had recent pictures to showcase his abilities.

Favorite Foods:  

hot dogs, strawberries, raspberries, chocolate caramels, popcorn, cupcakes and chocolate chip pancakes

When I Grow Up I Want To Be:

A paleontologist - work with dinosaurs 

Family:

Daddy, Mommy, Julia, Ethan, Liam, Oma, Mimi and Papa

I unfortunately did not have any printed pictures of Mimi and Papa so we need to update this poster.  

Show & Tell:

Grayson brought his lion in for show and tell.   This lion is very special as it has his heartbeat from when he was inside of me as a baby.  Whenever you squeeze the lion's belly you can hear the recorded heartbeat.  It's very special and it was fun to see Grayson get excited about sharing this with his friends.

Class Reading: 

On Friday Daddy, Mommy and Liam went to Grayson's classroom to read a book to the class.  It was so cute to see Grayson's friends all give hugs to Liam.  It started with everyone saying Hi to Liam, followed by several friends giving him hugs and then everyone wrapped around him and gave him one big hug.  They were all saying his name and it was the cutest thing to watch.  Grayson was so proud and Liam soaked it all up.   Things got a little crazy when I read the book to the class because they were all so into Liam that it made it hard to read.  Both of the boys sat in front with Daddy and Mommy and had fun joking around.  We had so much fun reading to Grayson's class.

Liam ~ Star of the Week

 Liam was star of the week for his preschool class.  He was so excited for this honor.  We put pictures of his favorite food, toys and family members.  He also had a page of what he wants to do when he grows up.  He said the same thing Grayson said last year, "He wants to work with Daddy."  We had fun putting the pages together.  Daddy and Mommy went to Liam's class to read a book to his class.  Liam was so proud to have us in his classroom.  It was so sweet!  Daddy did a great job reading the book to his classmates.  Liam also had to present his Star of the Week pages to his class.  Each day he had to present one page about himself.  This day it was about his favorite things.  He did a great job and was so proud to have mommy and daddy in his class.  His teacher said he also did great the other days when presenting to his class.  We are so proud of him!
