Shane's first day of preschool

Shane is attending Heritage Christian Preschool again this year. He is in the 4 year-old Zebras class. He absolutely loves school and attends T/Th from 9-2 pm. They do a lot of kindergarten prep stuff and also learn bible verses and stories. They go to Life Prints where they explore science and Spanish.

Do they make a bed bigger than a king?

With last night's storm, I gained two extra people in my king-sized bed. At midnight, I finished a 3+ hour phone call with my mom and went up to check on the kids. Shane has been sleeping with Sarah a lot these days. She uses it as a bartering system when she has friends over. "Shane, if you let me and Kate play alone, then you can sleep with me tonight..." Pretty smart girl. I think she is comforted by him as much as he is by her. If she won't let him sleep in her bed, he sleeps outside her door in a little Star Wars tent. Hopefully they'll still get along like this as teenagers. I said hopefully. {picture to follow}

Anyways...when I went up to check on them, Sarah was wide awake, scared of the thunder. Steve was out of town, so I invited them down. I don't think any of us slept well. Shane was in the middle, but his knees and feet were on me the whole time. Next time, I think he is going sleep in the floor. I keep a pillow and blanket on my side of the bed so that when he shows up he has a place. Note, he came down often when he was allowed in the bed, but since I put out this blanket, he doesn't come near as often.

I read Cari's post about the 4 of them in the same situation, and I think they have a queen! Maybe I should just utilize the lock in the bedroom door?

bible

Tonight at dinner we were talking about the bible and and how there are only 2 books named after ladies. (Ruth and Esther.) Well, Sarah pondered this a minute and then as serious as can be asked "What are we going to do in Sunday School once we have learned all the bible stories?"

I have done several studies and still don't even feel like I have a little glimpse at all the bible has to teach us. Sarah on the other hand is worried about running out of content. Oh, the things kids think and say. :)
