Back to Life, Back to Reality

And wow did I get thrown right back into reality as this week has been nothing but busy! It's a good busy though, don't get me wrong! Between play groups, Chatterbox group, home visits and MOPS our days have been filled with fun. Yesterday Joshua even got to go and visit an early childhood class at Calvin, my former teaching partner Susan teaches part time at Calvin now, so the students could do some observing while he and a few other kids played. It surprised me, but being the social little guy that he is he warmed right up to Susan and even gave her a hug when we left(I think he has seen her twice in his life and one of those times was in the hospital when he was born). He also enjoyed playing with the other kids. Afraid of social situations this child is not! Susan gave him a special treat for coming, Color Wonder Finger paints! Joshua was so excited about his new paints we had to come right home and try them out. They are pretty cool. I mean what mom wouldn't love their child to be able to paint without all the mess?!?! Of course, it's not a substitute for the real thing, because every kid should get messy with real finger paints! There's a lack of pictures from this week, but not a lack of activity!
