All Dressed Up

After church last week Matthew told me he wanted a white shirt with a tie like daddy. I happened to see some little shirts and ties in his size while we were walking through Walmart last week so we got some for him. They didn't have white shirts in his size, but he seemed ok with it. Usually I just have him wear a polo shirt to church when he was smaller 'cause I didn't see little tie sets in his size very often (not at the BX in Okinawa anyway). He was very excited for his new church clothes and he looked very nice. He had a good time at his class again. I think the structure of a class suits him a lot better than the chaos of nursery.
Anna, on the other hand, seems to be doing well in nursery. She goes in there and doesn't cry and participates when they do songs and activities. She does stand around staring nervously at the crying children though. I asked her how nursery went today and if some of the kids cried.

Her response was this:
Anna: ALL of the kids cried!
Me: Did you cry?
Anna: No! Not me!

She's tough. In any case, church is going well so far. I did have to walk little people to the bathroom way more times than I would have liked and carry kids into and out of church over the ankle deep snow. That wore me out a little. But I am so glad I got to sit quietly in my classes (and appreciate the lesson) without having to wrangle a child. Of course, that will all be over in two months when our new little one comes, but I'm liking it for now.
