Nathan's Valentine Party

I am really enjoying working in Nathan's class on Fridays (thanks again mom). This was a Friday I have been looking forward to. Since he is the 'Star of the Week' he gets to talk about all of the pictures and special things he brought in throughout the week. He doesn't really talk much in class or participate in the songs and such (if he doesn't want to do the hand motions he just won't), BUT today he was very talkative. He explained all of his pictures - the wall was completely covered - I have never seen another kid bring as much stuff as my kid did. He wanted to bring his scrapbooks but I declined and said yes to waay too many other pictures. The funniest thing was hearing him explain all of the pictures and wait until the other kids were really listening before he would finish a sentence. Here he is with his best little friend opening their valentine's cards. His favorite was from his best friend because it was Star Wars. I had made Nathan's with a picture of him and it was fun to hear the kids thank him for it and one kid even said 'Thanks Nathan, now I will never forget you". Too cute - out of the mouths of babes!
