20 Days to 5

Oooh someone's having a birthday,
Yes I know its true,
There's nobody that loves babe,
The way that we love you!

Waiting, Watching, Hoping, Loving,
Just can't wait till my birthday,
20 days to 5

Home, again,

Home again, jiggety jig.

FIRST DAY OF KINDERGARTEN!

My teacher greeted me at the door and I had a great day!

Day before school

I am waiting patiently to go to school tomorrow. Aunt Jackie sent this picture to me and I am putting it on my blog because I like it.
I had to sit in service, instead of going to the nursery yesterday. It is good to worship the Lord with the big people.
I shouldn't have waited so long to be a big boy!

Three DAYS till School!

I am waiting and shopping and celebrating every minute that takes me closer to going to school. When I am a big boy I can't act like a baby any more. My temper tantrums and the silly noises I make are bad habits that I have to stop. I hope I don't forget when I go to school.

Ezra at Four!

Four, four, shoes on the floor,
Refusing to pour,
Both neatly and well.

Four, Four, Everywhere's a tour
Talking before,
I'm told to.

Four, Four, won't shut the door,
Always want more,
of all, but sleep.

Four, four, paddling to shore,
What else is in store,
For me to do.

I want to put a picture of an owl on

my blog...I just can't find one! 5 days till school. I am so excited. I can write my name EZRA.

Dad bought

three shirts and a backpack for me. This is the count down to school. It is funny how the weather changes with the back to school sentiments down here. A cooler breeze and a change in weather to mark the beginning of my learning adventure. I cannot wait to meet my new teacher and new friends and wear my new shirts!

This is the last week of Summer!

I must start going to bed on time. Next week I move up in the Sundayschool and I will be a big boy in the worship service also. I have come a long way this summer. I still can't tie my shoes, but I have slip ons for school and one week to get ready. The teachers said that they would call Mom and Dad on Tuesday to tell them which teacher I would have for school. Today I wrote one whole scripture verse during the morning service. I am learning how to listen still. It takes time to get it.

Kindergarten "ASSESS-ME"

I am going to Kindergarten "assessme" to learn about "extramation" points and plutification and what it means to be "super-effective",like the Poke'mon. I want to know everything that I can know. Every time I see an "extramation" point I want to know what it means. That is why I am going to school!

Coming a LONG Way

I can't believe how much I have grown. I told the teacher 2 knock knock jokes and went into the meeting with the teachers all by myself. I really can't wait for Kindergarten to begin.

Today is Kindergarten Assessment Day

I am excited and happy that I will soon join my older brothers and sisters in the adventure into learning. Today is one of those days that I will remember.
I must have a good breakfast and put on my good clothes and go to the school to see what is going to happen there. I cannot wait to meet the friends and people and teachers that I will see.
Mommy said that she remembers when Aunt Julia went to kindergarten assessment and then met her in the schoolyard right in the middle of a strong game of tag that she was playing with her friends. Everybody stopped what they were doing to see this little girl and gather around her and she looked so small there. She didn't look that small at home.
Today is my day though and I will see what new things that I will learn and maybe when I get to school I will see my big brother and he will seem bigger. Who knows?

The Pool was hot on Saturday

The whole family went to the pool and I had on a life vest. I got in and found it a very independent feeling. I could move around the pool with my feet on the ground or I could pick my feet up, just as easily. Before now, I had to be on constant watch from one of my life-guards that I call sisters and brothers and attached to someones back or hand or Mommy or Elyse would "have a cow!". Not this time, I guess I am a big boy now because I had to scream to get some one to come and help me. It is a little lonely being a big boy.

These are the last days of My Four year old self...

Day one:
Getting ready for Kindergarten.

I am Ezra and I am 4 years old. In a few weeks I will be 5 and there are many new things that will be happening to me.
I need to get ready for kindergarten and I need alot of help to do that.
This week I will be going for my kindergarten assessment.
I will meet my new teacher and find out what they want me to do when I get there. I am excited about kindergarten.
I will meet new friends and learn new things and take the bus and have a new teacher.
There is a cafeteria in the new school. I hope that I will eat my food right and not make a mess. We will see...
