The Wee Lad is five. Can it be possible?!
He's learned how to take selfies with my phone.
He loves doing puzzles and is getting to be rather good.
He loves his preschool. He was especially excited to take Gil to show him around on Father's Night.
He has a really good friend at preschool who we are going to miss a lot when he's in kindergarten next year.
On his actual birthday, Wesley had his preschool graduation.
This was more of a going through the motions event for us. The school year here starts in July and with his late May birthday, Wesley will be doing one more year of preschool before starting kindergarten when he's newly six. We decided it would be better for him to play at home one more year and be the oldest in his class.
This birthday was all about tools. He got a wheelbarrow and other yard/garden implements and his very own tool bag full of tools (thanks, Auntie!). He's been busy 'landscaping', building, measuring, and letting his creativity flow.
His birthday party was Curious George themed. Did I get any pictures...? Nope! Gil made a palm tree room decoration and small, individual yellow hat piñatas for all the kids. We played a Curious George matching game and made Steve's homework boat (if you're familiar with the PBS series). Wesley said he wanted to make a speech, we let him, and he told three jokes that made no sense to me but had the other five-year-old boys laughing uproariously.
Wesley also informed me he was ready to go to the dentist. I made him an appointment and he did great! He talked about showing off his clean teeth for show and tell at preschool, but ended up doing something else. Funny kid.
Happy birthday, Wesley!
