Maddy's Open House...

West Hills Baptist Church Preschool had their Open House on Thursday, Sept. 25. Maddy was so excited that we were all going to visit her school with her. She couldn't wait to show off her classroom! She absolutely LOVES going to school. She has been walking herself in since the 2nd day of school. Her teachers are great and they are doing so many fun things, and Maddy has made a new friend named Mollie. For the big event, Maddy wanted to wear her favorite brown dress with the yellow bow to match. (She is getting so particular about her clothes and matching accessories!) She first showed us how they are to put their fish into the fishbowl every morning to show that they are present. Then she took us into their new reading center. Their class was able to purchase some cute little furniture from points they earned through Scholastic Book orders. She sat down and read her class book to us. Mrs. Elder and Mrs. Houk put together a book that has all of the children's pictures in them so they could take them home and learn their friends' names. Then Maddy showed us the bulletin board that they made as a class. The title was "We're On the Move to..." Of course Maddy chose a yellow car, and her answer was "...the Bounce House" It's always fun to see/hear the things they come up with! When we were done with her classroom, we HAD to go visit the Book Fair. Even though we have hundreds of books at home, I let each girl pick out a new one. Jonathan and I both love to read and the girls are definitely following in our footsteps. I don't think we could ever have too many books!

And he took the children in his arms, put his hands on them and blessed them. Mark 10:16

Oh how fun! Maddy looked SO pretty for her Open House and very proud to show off her school to her family!
I cannot resist new books either (but you know that!), but I never can get rid of any old ones to make room for the new ones - what do you suggest?! (More book shelves!!)
