Getting ready for pre-school

At the end of the month Johnito will start pre-school again but during the school year it will be different than it was this summer. Now he will be learning a lot of new things. So for the first time Connie and I were given a list and shopped for Johnito's school supplies. Today I took a picture on my cellphone of Johnny carrying his backpack while we shopped for some clothes. He keeps telling us every day that he wants to go to school and of course doesn't understand when I tell him that school doesn't start for several more weeks. Luckily I got him a Star Wars notebook and a Star Wars folder and we almost got him a Star Wars lunchbag but I saw a Metal one like the kind I used to have when I was a kid and Jonny wanted that one which was from the movie "Cars." Connie thinks I'm pushing Star Wars on him and she's right but hey, a dad does what he has to do.



Also, Connie thought she had lost our camera. A lady from church watched Johnny and her family took him to the swimming pool at their apartment complex and Connie thought she had laid the camera down while getting Johnny ready to go and had left it. Tonight she found it on the dresser in our bedroom and of course tried to say that I must have taken it out of Johnny's backpack and put it there but the truth is she did it that very night and forgot about it. It's fine for me because the camera was not cheap and we couldn't afford to replace it right now. So this week I'll try to get the video of Johnny swimming here on the blog. This video is Johnny at the playground for a local mall.
