Ashlyn's preschool class took a fieldtrip to the Dinosaur Museum at Thanksgiving Point. When I sent in the permission slip for her to go I asked her if she cared if I went or not and she said she didn't care if I went- so I didn't sign up to go. A few days later I heard her talking to her friends and they were talking about whos mom would be going on the fieldtrip and I heard her say, "well my mom has to take care of Tanner so she can't come." She sounded kind of sad about it. I thought how silly that I am not going- Tanner can come along and she is only in preschool once. So I signed up to go. When I sent the money and note to her teacher to say I would be coming her teacher said she announced to the whole class that her mom would be there and was so excited. She talked about it for the days leading up to the fieldtrip and told everyone that her mom and little brother would be there. I am so glad we went. How much longer will she be proud to have her mom and little brother with her at her school! She LOVES school and loved introducing me to all her friends.

Tanner came along, but was NOT a fan of the dinosaurs. I didn't even think to explain to him beforehand what would be there. He didn't understand that the dinosuars weren't alive. They have these HUGE scary looking disosaurs with sounds in the background. He was so scared. I had to hold him and cover his ears almost the entire time. He finally relaxed and played in the dirt when he couldn't hear the sounds anymore.
Ashlyn loves her teacher Miss Karen. She is amazing and so patient with these kids.
This is all the kids hugging her goodbye before they go home!
