Perfect Timing Turning 6 Years Old!

Big J had "Safety Town" last week. He learned all kinds of things about being safe from bicycle safety, fire safety, pedestrian safety, stranger safety (non-safety!), poisonous hazards, gun safety, bus safety and the list goes on. The parents are invited to stay each day for the 2-hour class. I usually stayed and most of the time I had Little L with me. It was really cool to get to see some of his fellow Kindergarteners, since the only ones who are invited to Safety Town are the ones who will be entering Kindergarten in the fall. On the day that they learned about fire safety, they got to visit the Fire Station. Big J LOVES fire trucks and such . . . . and it was perfect timing that this day actually was his BIRTHDAY! So, I made a firetruck cake to commemorate the day. I don't know if he'll remember it forever, but I know I will. It was surely one of the cutest things to see his class and some of the firemen sing Happy Birthday to him as he stood up when "Officer Rick" called his name. My son is so shy in a group. Oh the smile on his face that day!!

It's so much fun to watch them have such a good time, isn't it? One of my favorite things to see is at school programs when they see you and give big smiles and waves of recognition...oh, the cuteness! Love the picture memory!
