December began with a phonecall from the school office to let us know that our request to switch Nathanael's school was approved, and they would enact the switch in five days! Aaah! We were shocked but knew it was the right decision. We had two school days to visit the new school and say bye to the old, shop for supplies, and mentally prepare. Nathanael did awesome. As a "new school" gift, Dad and I bought him a couple chapter books in German. He sat in this rocking chair for over an hour, devouring the books! (One was a detective book; the other was a police story book.)

Four of the six boxes of leftover cookies from small group!
I LOVE that I can jog one of my favorite paths to Nathanael's school for the noon pick-up!
