We love Addison's class at First Steps. They seem to all get along so well and each little person has their own distinct personality. I took off on Thursday to play catch up following tax season so I was able to join Addison for her Easter party. We dropped her off at 9:00 like Monty does each week and stood around for a minute while we unpacked her bag, etc. Addison walked up to her friend Noel and gave her a hug (she is very affectionate these days which I adore). I could not have been more proud of the sweet child I have, and then she did something that is more along the lines of things I do (aah, she is turning out to be a control freak like me!) she pulled sweet Noel's pacifier out of her mouth - just yanked it out. I put it back in her mouth and explained to Addison that Noel is allowed to have her pacifier and that it is not our place to take it out. Well, that speech feel on deaf ears. Addison pulled it out yet again (three times to be precise) until her teacher put it in Noel's cubby. Addison appears to have a mindset much like all children that if she is not allowed to have hers, then other children need to follow the same rules. What a wonderful experience parenting continues to provide. Lucky for us we do have a wonderful child who is very eager to treat others kindly. In the process, she continues to teach me patience..
We are having the worst fires in Texas since 1917 and they are about 30 miles from where we live. God blessed the fires with a touch of rain on Wednesday night which meant the hunt had to come in to the gym. It is propabably more safe for Addison's class as 4 little new walkers don't need any unexpected terrain to interfere with their journey. They each had a blast, but surprising the girls were much more interested in the actual hunt. Kayden liked to kick the eggs and Silas was just fine observing. They are each so adorable

There is a gym full of eggs and yet they all huddled in one spot! |

Addison holding her own - I don't know who won, but they sure were funny. |

The best picture I was able to get of her class; believe it or not they do not really pose! You really can't see, but Addison is sporting her Easter shirt. |

What is a party without cupcakes?!? |
