Field Trip

Evie went on her first field trip today with her preschool class. The kids all made reindeer shirts to wear today. She saw her friend Tyler come in the door and got very excited that they had matching shirts. I'm sure she was even more excited when all her friends showed up in the same shirt! We went to Homewood assisted living to visit and sing to the residents. Evie really enjoyed talking with the older ladies, and I really think I could have left her chatting for hours! Afterwards the class went to visit Santa and have lunch at the mall. Evie liked sitting on Santa's lap, but she was heartbroken when the cookies from Santa had milk and eggs in them. It was our first experience of being upset because she couldn't eat something. I wanted to cry right along with her, but I just promised her that I would let Santa know she needed a special cookie. After I dropped my carload off at preschool I went home and got her some leftover Divvies cookies from Disney World and wrapped them from Santa. She was so excited to tell me that Santa gave Mrs.Lemons some special cookies just for her.
