Police Day at Merryhill

There are some things you just don't want to see as a Mom when you pull up to your child's school such as police tape, officers everywhere and a police helicopter. That was the scene that greeted us today when I was dropping Cole off to school. But don't worry! It was Police Day today and the officers at Metro were out at the school to talk to the kids and teach them about safety. They brought along all their units including the K-9's, the horse mounted officers, helicopter officers, bike, motorcycles and more. Cole was buzzing with excitement as I walked him to class. He kept saying what an exciting day this was going to be. I agree, it looked pretty cool. Carson was very interested in all of the activity going on and wanted to stay but unfortunately only the students get to participate.

It is days like these that I am so happy with our decision to switch Cole to a new school. These are the types of memories he will have forever and looking back Kindergarten will have been a wonderful time in his life.

They do Police Day up right there! My goodness, I bet he had a ton of fun. It's funny how seeing a bunch of cop cars is automatically a mother's worst nightmare...and a boy's dream come true! It looks like a great school!

That is an exciting day! It seems like you've had lots of moments that have reaffirmed your decision. (Not to mention what a great reader he is!!!)
