Papa Visits Austen's School

This year, Austen's school held a Grandparent's/Special Friend Day. Papa rearranged his eye appointment so Austen could have a grandparent represented. We had been telling Austen that Papa was coming to his school that afternoon so he knew Papa was coming but when he saw Papa, the excitement was just too much for him to contain. He ran to him and jumped up into Papa's arms. Austen's teacher, Ms. Carol, had an activity for the kids and grandparents to do together - making a bird feeder. So Austen and Papa started coating their pine cone with soy butter (which Austen tried to eat before and after it was on the pine cone). Then they added the bird seed (Austen ended up knocking his plate of bird seed all over the floor) but that Montessori teaching had him sweeping it up in no time. At the end, Papa and Austen had a nice bird feeder and Austen and Tom had a great time putting it up outside of our condo and watching the birds.
