Nick picked Camden up from school today after playing Mr. Mom home with Kellan all day. When he got to Room 4, Camden was sitting at the classroom table working on a puzzle. Camden looked up, saw Dad at the door, threw all the puzzle pieces all over the floor, and ran to Daddy. Nick said "Camden" in a stern warning voice "can you go back and pick up that puzzle you threw?" Now, there was a 50/50 chance that Camden was going to listen. (okay, who are we kidding, a 95/5 percent chance). But our precious boy stopped in his tracks, turned around and proceeded to pick up every single piece of the puzzle he had thrown. All the teachers clapped. We were so proud. (I'm putting this moment in my virtual pocket for all the moments we're probably going to want to die of embarrassment from that are coming).
Camden had made an art project today at school. It was a rainbow painted on a paper with cheerios pasted around the rainbow. Camden always has to hold on to his projects in the car on the way home. Yea, we come home with soggy edges sometimes, but it's a peaceful ride home.
Well, we've never had a project with "food" on it before. By the time Nick got home and got Camden out of the car seat he realized several cheerios were missing from the art project. Along with the missing cheerios (with what I hope were pasted on with non toxic glue) Camden had all the colors of the rainbow around his mouth from eating the after school snack straight off the construction paper.
