Playgroup, and Maturation

Jason had playgroup yesterday. Since we had our chaotic morning we were about 15 minutes late. We missed circle time but Jason did jump right in. He enjoyed the big transition craft which was the sticky paper. Most of the kids put one or two things on and were done. Not my boy. He could have done this just about all day.

Then of course there was the Maturation program. Duncan wanted me to be there.....surprise! I got to go and sit with a bunch of 5th grade boys and learn about puberty. That was comfortable. There of course was a lot of giggling, but Duncan seemed to handle it for the most part. I was a little surprised when they started talking about the girls cycles and what not. I don't remember them talking about boys to us when I was little....Duncan did ask why they had to talk about that. I replied, "Someday you will be married to a girl." He said, "Well can't I wait to learn about it then???" I just had to chuckle.

After the program, Duncan went to put away the chairs in his room. I had of course brought Jason with me so I was carrying him. Jennifer Reuter, a lovely woman that lives down the street who also happens to be deaf, loves my Jason. She took him from me to talk to him and of course he wanted back with Mom immediately. He did start pushing her, I think to make her go away, but she just said and signed, "What, what do you want." and spun around in a circle. Jason just smiled huge and giggled and tried to climb back into her arms. Very cute reaction from my boy!

How did this happen?????

We woke up this morning, Saturday might I remind you, to be at the church by 9:00am. We are having a Stake Play and the kids wanted to audition. I'm cool with that! If the kids want to be in a play, GREAT!!!

Well.............one of the lovely ladies in my ward suggested I audition for a part. I advised her that I wasn't much of an actor and that we were here just for the kids. Then all the kids piped in and begged me to audition. So, whatever!!! Then we all went into the room together and took pictures of the kids doing their audition and then I read. To which they turned around and asked Brett if he would come read the part of the King while I read the part of the Queen.

HUH?

Yes! We are all going to be in the play. Brett is the King, I am the Queen, Duncan is Pinocchio and the girls are Royal Children. Jason will probably be spending every rehearsal night with my mother-in-law. I'm not sure how this happened. Why are we so nice??????
