First Grade

And just like that, summer is over and the hustle of school, starts again. 1st grade, here we come, with a few tears and lots of smiles! 

About that Easter Bunny

March 25, 2016, he woke up Easter Morning, loved his basket and hunted for eggs.

For Easter, I've always taken the baby powder and made foot prints and then taken cotton balls and put them around the house. Carson has always loved it and followed the foot prints around, etc.

Later that morning, Carson, Sydney, Geoff and I were playing in Sydney's room. Carson decided to smell the "foot print" and says, the foot print smells like baby powder.  The Easter Bunny is a fake. I seriously could have cried and Geoff was laughing.  Carson starts walking around the house asking all these questions and then saying the Easter Bunny is a fake. I told him if he believes in his heart, anything can be real.

I quickly vacuumed everything up hoping to divert any more questions.  He starts talking about the baby powder again, talks to my mom on the phone about the fake Easter Bunny and I told him no more questions for the day. lol.

I said please, give me one more year of your innocence, just believe in your heart he is real. Geoff laughing in the background.

Oh, what a day!!

Dear Tooth Fairy

It had been wiggly for a few weeks, but on January 31, 2016 during lunch, Carson lost his very first
tooth!

He looked at me in shock after he bit into his sandwich, he gave me a big smile and held his tooth in his hand and then hurried to the bathroom mirror to check out his new smile.

The tooth fairy visited Carson that night and left him a crisp $5 bill for losing his first tooth.

It won't be long until the tooth fairy visits Carson again, because he already has another wiggly tooth.
