A New Chapter

All of our kids have attended preschool at Chapter One.  We were told by good friends that this was a great preschool and that our kids would be well-prepared for kindergarten when they graduated.


Sho and I remember touring the facility before we made the move from Los Angeles and we could not believe the size of the playground!  Not only was the playground impressive, but the staff is great and they have provided a great foundation for our kids.


Since Jason's last day of school was Friday and it was our goodbye to Chapter One, we took the staff the biggest bag of caramel corn we've ever made to say thank you.

Jason graduated and was all smiles!  He is excited about kindergarten, but he says he's already feeling sad because he will miss his teachers.

As part of Chapter One graduation, every student draws a picture of what they want to be when they grow up and they tell everyone during graduation about what they've chosen as their future profession.  Knowing this was coming, we wondered what Jason would choose because in this past year, at one point or another, he's said that he wanted to... work at Krispy Kreme, be a movie director, be an author and the most recent choice... bag groceries at SaveMart.  Here's what he chose...

Jason is so ready for kindergarten.  We recently went to the library and he picked a book about an otter, who lives with a human (named Otter Keeper) and the otter has a stuffed animal named Teddy.  Jason was able to read the whole book by himself and the story was about the otter and Teddy trying to figure out what their job should be.  In the end, Teddy's job was being a best friend and otter's job was taking care of Teddy.  It is the cutest story ever. 


So now Jason has decided he can have two jobs - inventor and best friend.  He's got his work cut out for him because I think lots of kindergarteners will want to be friends with this guy!
