CJ's Preschool

I am so blessed and give thanks to God for his grace in it all. My 2 year old CJ goes to "preschool at Grandma's" almost every morning while we homeschool. It is truly a blessing to have her living downstairs. Our routine is that after breakfast and chores, we take coffee down to Grandma, and CJ brings his "Sloan" (his stuffed elephant that he is very attached to) and his drink, and he goes down to play with Grandma for a couple hours while we get the bulk of our school finished. He plays with blocks, matches shapes & colors, does puzzles, plays with cars, has a snack, sits in Grandma's lap and reads books, and most of all gets undivided attention from someone who loves him. What 2 year old could ask for anything more than that? He loves his Grandma, and so do we. He is also potty trained! We started with him right around Christmas, and he took to it very quickly. He got big boy underwear in his stocking to spark interest. Now 3 weeks later, he is telling me when he needs to go and even stayed dry during his nap today. He is so funny about it - I was in hysterics this morning as he sat on the potty saying to me in his cute CJ way, "Mom, do you hear it?" He was talking about what was going in the potty, of course! This kid is really funny.
