Devon recently joined the grade school class at church. Being in that class means you have a fun event to attend every month of the year (plus extra ones for fourth and fifth graders), camp (though it's going to be a day camp this year), and some bonus events during the summer. Needless to say, joining the grade school class is something to look forward to. It's a big deal in our family.
Today was Devon's first grade school event - Water Wars I. Silas wasn't able to attend, which I'm kinda thankful for because it allowed Devon a chance to have this introductory event all to himself. Devon still naps at least two hours a day and the event was smack during nap time. It was also on a Thursday, which is, without a doubt, the worst day of our week because the kids are up late for Bible study on Wednesday night. So, I wasn't sure how he'd do.
Well, he did great and had a blast! Cheese sandwich (that's a burger without the meat, as he's almost a vegetarian), two cans of soda, chips, and cookies. Bible study, songs, chatting with friends. Water limbo, launching water balloons into rings of people, squishy water balls, capture the flag with water balloons, hoses, squishy water guns, and various other water activities ... and all under blue skies with 80 degree weather. What more could a kid ask for?
I do, however, think 8:00 will come a little early tonight.
