Vacation Bible School

Charlie went to Vacation Bible School at a Lutheran Church (Good Shepherd) and he had a great time. I wish I would have taken pictures, but alas, I did not. He went for 4 days for 2.5 hours each day. I was so proud of him for being so brave and listening and I even caught a few glimpses of him singing the songs and doing the actions. He was definitely on the younger side of the kids there, but this was a great "small" introduction for him to preschool which he will be start in about 4 weeks. I think that he is ready. He is becoming confident in who he is and seems to have minimal problems with me leaving (we now talk about it a day or two in advance).

I am sure he learned a lot about God and Jesus, but that is not what I can tell from what he tells me about VBS. Here is what he tells me:

Mommy: What did you do today?

-"I didn't eat all my bagel" (yup....)
-"I did 1, 2, shhhhhhh" (that was the way they got the kids quiet)
-"There was a basketball hoop" (ok......)

....And there you have it! He had some cool art projects, but to be honest, Charlie could care less about arts and crafts and "coloring." In fact, he hates coloring. Every time I pull out the crayons, he spends about 10 seconds scribbling and then goes to something else. Oh well. On the other hand, he still plays his xylophone, kazoo, drums, and guitar for 30 minutes straight. Ha!

Cute and confident boy.
