Day 1 Agenda for the 'new' 6 year old

Reece is loving being 6. He is already talking about how he will "soon" be 7. The kid has big plans. Well, I had some big plans for him his first day of being 6. That little stinker....after being at the ocean all day Saturday, he was up super early today. Please understand that this is the child I have to literally drag out of bed at 8:30a.m. so I can get to church on Sundays. Well....this stinker was up, with his buddy, before Brian got up this morning. Brian got up at 5:30a.m. Yes....it is true.

So...as I went out to pick up a bunch of books, on hold, at the Library I gave Brian the instruction that Reece needed a nap. The child was rubbing his eyes at 8:30a.m. A nap was needed. Well...I can never just go and pick up my hold items -- the Library is such an exciting place filled with gigantic possibilities. So...two hours later I come home and get a motherly report from Lindsey. "Daddy didn't have Reece take a nap because Daddy fell asleep and he is the only one that took a nap!" There is a possibility that she even had her hands on her hips. (Don't know where she gets that from).

So....this child will sure sleep good tonight and won't he be fun when we start school tomorrow. Yep...first day of school after an eventful weekend.

Reeces Pieces, I'm glad you had a great birthday! We're just sorry that we couldn't be there. Did you save any birthday goodies for grandmom and me?
