And Last but Not Least.....

Andrew had his end of year, whole school- about 30 3 - 5 year olds, picnic yesterday at the new Green Springs Park. This is probably the closest park to us and it is still 1.8 miles from our house. Andrew and I know well how far 1.8 miles is. I made him walk up there Monday when we were bored. We went and had a fun picnic and played for a couple of hours. All was well until it was time to walk home, he did NOT think that was a fine idea at all. He wanted me to call Dad, but Dad was at work. He wanted me to call Grandma, but she was at work. He got lucky when our Bishop came by in his new Cadillac and offered us a ride home. They had face paiting, Andrew has really been obsessed with Black Widow spiders lately so that is what he chose for his painting.
They had an obstacle course and other fun games, that Andrew refused to do because when his mom is there he doesn't do anything. Funny story here though: I was talking to his teacher about how he does if I'm not there and she said he gets right in and does everything. However, she said, when they were practicing their dancing for their graduation Andrew refused to dance with any of the boys. They all tried to get him too but he said no. So Teacher Jackie told him to go ahead and pick the partner he wanted. She he went and picked Kella, one of the girls, and then danced away. His dad was "VERY PROUD" when I told him this. He is sure there is no chance of him growing up to be gay now.
They also played in the water, which Andrew again refused to do.
Had a fun treasure hunt for bugs and other insects in the "jungle"
And had lunch. All in all it was a really fun day.
