"And that's the color song!"

Carter started a new school in the end of March. He's in the Beginning Preschool classroom with an amazing teacher, Miss Jacque. He has had a rough time adjusting...new teachers, new friends (mostly older), and more curriculum. We've had some rough mornings filled with "I going my new school today? I don't want to go my new school." and lots of tears. However, in the last 2 weeks or so, we've had a few moments that show me he's having fun learning at his new school. For example, we went to the store and I said "Carter, help me find a white shirt." He said "No, I count them. Uno, dos, cinco, cinco, cinco." And when I got him a special treat from Dairy Queen (a red slush) he said "RED! RO-JO! RO-JO!" It's clicking - and he likes it :) Yesterday I was able to capture another moment on video. We went to Walmart to get some signs for our garage sale. And all Carter saw was "color signs" like Miss Jacque holds up when they sing songs...specifically, "The Color Song." He sat in the cart and we sang like they sing at school. We did this about 30 times throughout the day :) I couldn't get the videos to load directly to this blog, so you'll have to go to YouTube to view them (Colors -1 and Colors - 2):
