and so it starts


First day of  preschool ~ year two 

So, here's the thing.  McKay started preschool again.  We decided not to send him to kindergarten since his birthday was so close to the deadline.  Not because he wasn't ready for kindergarten.  (It's a huge pet peeve of mine when I tell people we kept him back and they say, "Oh, my kid is just so ready for kindergarten."  Mine is too.  He'd do absolutely fine in kindergarten, I have no doubt.  But we're thinking long term here, not just about right now.)  Sorry, tangent.  Anyway, last year he was the youngest in his class.  

This year.  This year he's the oldest.

Oh what a difference.  This year McKay finds himself in the middle of an odd love triangle.

Anna and Laura.  Twins.  

McKay tells me that Laura is the best singer he's ever heard.  She's just so good.

Anna, has light brown hair and that's pretty much all I know about her.

Last week he came home from school with a guilty conscience.  I never have to worry about McKay keeping things from me because his conscience completely rules his mind.  He didn't want to tell me what happened, but of course he did.

He kissed Laura at recess.  On the lips.  She wanted him to.  Afterwards, she said, "Kiss me again.  Kiss me again!"  He didn't, just the one time.  

Anna was jealous.  Back inside the classroom she told McKay that she wouldn't find any more treasures with him unless he kissed her too.  Anna is really good at finding treasures around the school.  He opted to kiss her on the cheek.  

Ummm. . .

It might be a looong year.

We all knew McKay was going to be a ladies man someday! He's just too cute- but so early? Wow!

Too cute.
I have one of those. . . a boy chaser. She's lost lunch recess several times for "chasing boys".
It definitely makes for a LONG year.
