Kirk's Feild trip to the grocery store

Okay, so going to the grocery store isn't exactly a novelty for my kids. We usually go every single week. So when I was planning on going to the store for Kirk's preschool feildtrip, I wasn't expecting it to be much more fun. I was wrong. I have to admit that it was really cute seeing 10 sweet little preschoolers explore a grocery store. We got to go behind the scenes, and see parts of the store that only workers usually go. Plus Kirk got a bunch of free stuff, and it's always fun to get something for free! I got a couple of cute pictures. Kirk loved it. I have to say that three years old is my all time favorite age for children. He is still so sweet and totally innocent. He gets excited over any tiny little thing, and best of all he still needs his mommy. The other day he kept saying "Mommy, am I cute"? I would say yes you are very cute. Then he would say "Mommy am I smart"? and I'd say yes you are very smart. The sad thing is that he's growing so fast. He's halfway to four already. Don't get me wrong four is great too, but I just love being the center of a three year old's world. It seems like once they hit four it's out with Mom, and in with all the cool friends. I have to always ask Kate to hug me before she leaves for school, and then it's like a half hug. My favorite part of my day is when I pick Kirk up from preschool. He comes running to me full speed and gives me the biggest hug ever. He is one special little guy, and I love him so much!
