Twas the Night Before Kindergarten

And a sweet little boy is tucked in his bed under Star Wars sheets dreaming of all the fun he is going to have at his new school!  Tomorrow is the big day!  Is Mommy ready?  Um, probably not.  When Mommy arrived home tonight, the boys were bathed and dressed for bed.  Mommy helped Evan lay out his clothes for school, and then she asked him to pick a book to read.  She gave him two choices tonight because she wanted the book to have significance for the occasion.  Mommy had planned to go look for a new book about the first day of kindergarten, but she never had the chance.  His choices were:

or 

I was really pulling for this one, and he usually really likes this book about a silly Moose who goes to school because he can't count out the money he needs to buy some candy.  

But alas, he chose:

Reading a book about all the places Evan will be able to go after he gets an education. 

You know little brother could not be left out.  Don't you just love his little snarl? 

Evan likes to pretend he is scared during one part when the little person is in the "alone" place. 

Yes, Brody is very involved in the reading process.  

The clothes and new shoes.  This is one of his newest outfits, but Mommy is waiting to do the rest of his back to school clothes shopping until we are at the beach with the benefit of an outlet mall. 

We said our prayers and wished him good night!  Sweet dreams, my Evan!
