This year I joined a mother's co-op with Logan called "Joy School". It's kind of like preschool but it's values based learning. We talk about honesty, sharing, the earth, obedience, trust, etc. There are 6 boys in the group with TWO sets of twins. So there are 4 moms total and we teach 2 times a week alternating weeks. Logan has REALLY enjoyed spending time with the 5 other boys and he likes going to Joy School. On the other hand, I'm not real crazy about when it's my time to teach. It takes a special person with LOTS of patience. 6 3-year old boys for 2 1/2 hours can be pretty hectic. They are good for the most part but it can be kind of stressful.

Tonight we had our Joy School Christmas party. The boys put on a little re-enactment of the nativity. Then they sang a few Christmas songs. It was cute. Logan was an inn keeper and then one of the three kings. The boys performed their program last week at an assisted living facility for the residents. One of the little boy's big sister played Mary for us. And one of the mom's helped out by being the angel. Here are a few pictures from our evening:

I did a type of joy school when Em was young. Then I decide it was well worth it to pay someone else! I dreaded everytime it was my turn to teach!
