Special Helper

On Monday, Sullivan was chosen to be the special helper at school. He brought snacks for his class, helped the teacher with passing things out, and shared with his friends a little about himself. He came home happy and loving life! 

Sullivan is adjusting to school pretty well. The hardest part yet is adjusting to no naps on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays. In turn, he wants to go to bed early and tries to get up really REALLY early. We're talking anywhere from 4:30 to 5:30 in the morning! And this momma is not having it. I'm half temped to buy one of those clocks off amazon that changes color at a set time. This color change allows kids to recognize times of day and most important the color change means when it's acceptable to get out of bed. We will see how this week goes..

Sullivan is also finally warming up to his classmates and new friends at daycare. He's opening up to sharing more about his day, and sings songs that they sing at school. So far he's told me that his favorite new friend is a little boy named Charlie and that he loves his preschool teacher, Mrs. Lawler. 


I'm so anxious and curious to see how much he will grow from beginning to end of the school year, especially with the new role of being a big brother.
