Today was a big day… it was our holiday school celebration, our last day at the only school we’ve ever known, and moving day.

The day started singing to our parents. Well, neither of us sang, but all the other kids in our class did. Mom was just impressed that we sat in one place for the 10 or so songs the other kids sang.

We also hosted a brunch for our parents, which took a new meaning for our family since it was our last day of school at Montessori Children’s House. While it was not a great fit for me, I did love my teachers very much and will definitely miss them. Cooper, on the other hand, fit in like a glove, and I’m sure he will miss the great, safe environment (as well as his teachers)provided for us here.

After a long morning at school with us, mom packed us up, picked up Emma, waved “so-long” to the only place we’ve called home and took us to a place called the “East Bay.” Daddy was directing traffic with the movers at our house, and mom dropped us off with Emma at an indoor playhouse so she could help get the new place organized before we took over.

We really like the “new place” very much – we love having more space to run and play hide and seek – but do ask from time to time when we are “going home.” The big selling point Mommy is using on this house over our “old house” is that we have a chimney (two, actually) that Santa can use to go down on Christmas. Boy, does that woman know how to talk to her audience.
