Ty Puppets Fieldtrip

Ty's Kindergarten class took a field trip to The Center for Puppetry Arts in Atlanta.  All the kids were excited and I was too since I got to attend.  The kids rode on the bus and all the parents drove separate.  When I saw Ty get off the bus I noticed him with his friend Allie.  Allie hopped off the bus and immediately whispered something to her mom; her mom looked at me and said, "Allie said Ty tried to kiss her on the bus".  Sure enough, I asked my son and he admitted it.  Allie's mom and I had a good laugh and I told Ty not to be kissing the girls!  
The kids got to make a cat puppet and move it to sound effects on a screen.  Then we ate lunch and watched a unique full stage puppet show; their own version of Beauty and the Beast (nothing like the Disney version).  The kids got a little bored and restless, but the puppets were very impressive.  




Later, after we were home I told Jeff about the field trip and he asked Ty what was it about Allie that he liked and why did he try to kiss HER?  His reply, "because she was sitting next to me"!

Muffins with Mom & Ty

I came to school to have breakfast with Ty to celebrate Mother's Day.  The kindergarden teachers hosted a great time for the moms and the kids and Mrs. Blackburn read the book "I'll love you forever".  Evidently Ty thinks I'm very tall and skinny. :-)  I love that I get this time with them while they are young and I know it won't last long.
