Wasson Family Update .........

Wow. I am so sorry for the lack of correspondence over the past couple of weeks, but things with our family have been a little bit crazy. Justin has been putting in long hours at work putting together a clinic for disabled veterans, I have been busy with work and preparing for Parker to head off to preschool, and Parker has been being Parker - always on the go and full of lots of energy.

Last week Parker went for his very first day of preschool. He will be going Monday thru Friday from 7:30 in the morning until 5:00 in the evening. I must say all seems to be going well. For the first two days he stayed attached to his teacher, but by day three he began to play with the other kids. Last Friday he came home and told me and Justin how he took a nap on his very own mat and showed us how he laid on the mat. He also brought home the cutest little pumpkin that he made. It is so funny to hear him talk about the other little kids in his class. Yesterday I called the preschool to see how he was doing and I was informed that all was going really well, except at lunch when Parker decided that he wanted another child's fruits snacks instead of his pretzels. I couldn't stop laughing. Although I was laughing, I felt bad. I mean, am I the mom packing the boring lunch? I mean seriously, black beans, fruit and pretzels are all things he loves. Well, for today, I tried to score some extra points and packed him some Vienna sausages, fruit, a few cheez-its and two little cookies. We will see who the cool mom is now...... Yesterday, as we were leaving he took me by his classroom to show me the scarecrow that his class made and as we left the facility he waved and told the director bye. If you know Parker you know that is a big accomplishment.

Justin's clinic for the disabled veterans was this past Saturday. All went very well. He came home with some great pictures. He was even asked to go and speak at the board of county commissioners meeting today regarding the event. Way to go babe!!!!!!

On Sunday, Justin, papaw and Parker went to the air show that they were having at Cocoa Beach. They had a great time. Justin said that Parker sat in his own little chair with his little sunglasses on the majority of the time. There was one big jet that was so loud that it scared him a little bit so he wanted to sit in daddy's lap, but other then that he sat there like a big boy.

Well, I better be going. Please keep us in your prayers as the next week and a half is going to be very crazy. I am in the middle of month end and fiscal year end here at work and then next Wednesday we will be heading to Chiefland because I have appointments at Shands on Thursday and Friday. These are my annual appointments, but my stomach still turns every year. Hope you all have a great week!!!!
