Jack has been having a great time at school lately. They had a birthday party for all 5 kids with October birthdays one day last month. He had a great time and smelled really sweet when he came home (like cupcakes and frosting). He was a wild boy with all that sugar, but I can handle that if it only happens once a year. He loved cleaning everyone's plate...I guess he pays too much attention to Blackie. He ended up with a frosting mo-hawk and I'll hopefully have pictures soon.
He is eating his cake with his friend Shamar.

Jack loves playing in the kitchen at school. He talks on the phone to mom and da. He loves to sort the "ice cube" shapes on the fridge. He must be following after his Grammy's love of ice.
On Halloween, the kids went trick-or-treating around the building at the YWCA and to see a few of the parents who work downtown. Jack was the only doctor, I think all of the girls were pink leopards.
Last Friday we received sad news from the daycare. They are going to sell the YWCA building and close the day-care. It was not an easy thing to handle, but I did make the evening news. Two of our favorite teachers have already put in applications at another center that is only a mile from my work, so we are going to try and move to that daycare or to another one downtown. Jack really loves his school, friends, and teachers, so it will be a sad transition for us. One of the other moms described it as similar to losing a job, and I think that is a good description of the feeling we had last week.Hopefully we can keep Jack with as many of the same people as he sees now, so the transition won't be so strange. We're sure everything will be fine and have until New Years Eve to find a new place to go. So I'll probably have only one more update from the YWCA.
We are having lots of fun and hopefully I can add a few pictures from the birthday party to this post.
