The Farm Hand

Taylor has had the amazing opportunity to attend a wonderful preschool this year here in town. It is a great, Christian preschool with loving staff whom all posses an amount of patience that can only be explained as divine. But what makes Taylor's preschool amazing to us is knowing that two of our cherished church members work there. Not only does this help mommy in the letting go process but it also gives us a set of eyes and ears on the inside. The stories they come back with about things Taylor has said and done...oh my! I think it was just this past week she couldn't be interrupted at recess because she was busy getting married to her BFF Kaden of course. That girl...

Anyway, that isn't the point of this post. Throughout the year, Taylor's amazing and super fun preschool has hosted fun events for the kids and their families. A few weeks ago they had "Farm Day" come to the school. It was so stinking cute! Here are a few pictures of Farm Day for your viewing pleasure.


"Milking" a cow.




Making butter. Shake shake shake!




Eating the butter she just made.




Shucking corn (which later was cooked and served with lunch).




Ta Da!




Planting wild flowers...



...and watering them of course.




Finger painting chocolate pudding "mud" on pigs.



Meeting a real live calf (no milking involved this time).




Witnessing Nanny the goat being milked. Check out Taylor's stance, she's into it!




So I'm not an expert on the matter but I'm pretty sure this is a donkey ride rather than a "pony ride". Still fun either way.




Cam got the actual pony ride. He was pretty pumped!




And to top it all off, a tractor ride!
 That was Taylor's day as a "farm hand" at preschool. Blessed we were able to be a part of it with her.
On a side note, anyone in the Manteca area looking for a GREAT preschool for ages 2-Pre K, Manteca Christian Preschool on Button Ave is the place to be! (I am not being paid to say this I promise! We just love her school.)
