Hail Mary

This morning was the May Crowning & Mother's Tea at Peyton's school. Since Mary's favorite color is blue, Peyton wore her BLUE and green sailor dress. After dropping T-Burn at Gung Gung's we stopped at Schnucks to purchase a couple carnations (Peyton hand picked them) for Mary. She was so proud of her selections. . .

. . .they smelled great, too:


Upon arriving at school, Peyton greeted McKinley and they discussed their flower selections:


Peyton placed her flowers in the vase. . .

. . .and then planted herself right next to it, blocking other kids from access:

Once the 2 & 3 year olds were all assembled around Mary, they sand her a song. Peyton appears to be the only 2 year old half interested in singing and doing the gestures. . .


After a couple songs, we went inside for our reception. The teachers had the Moms sit in regular chairs and the kids "served" us from their side of the classroom (a.k.a. the little chairs and the kitchenette). This in-action clip of Peyton bringing me my plate reminds me so much of Boland (when she served us coffee at the Macaroni Grill years ago).


After we finished our snack, we posed for a Mother/Daughter pic:


. . .and then Peyton posed with her wonderful teachers:
