Fun with Hannah at School

 Valentine's Day in Hannah's class
We made "mailboxes" for their Valentines and also had treats!
 "You've Got Mail"
The Pre-K got to deliver mail throughout the ECE and The Lower School.  It was a lot of fun!
Hannah was a very shy mail carrier, but she got the job done!

Look who's a BIG BOY!

It's official Ben is a big boy!!  No more diapers (ok he still wears them at night)!
Good Job Benny!
