Kaitlyn's preschool class went on a field trip thismorning to a pumpkin patch. They went to the same pumpkin patch last year and there is a man that dresses up with a pumpkin head. I wasn't able to go with her last year but when her teacher dropped her off afterwards she said she was terrified of the pumpkin man to the point of tears. She hadn't forgotten about him and was nervous about going back. She kept asking me if I was going with her this time. She stayed pretty close to me when we first got there and kept her distance from the pumpkin man when he appeared. I kept reminding her that she didn't need to be scared because she knew it was just a man in there. She warmed up to him though and even agreed to get her picture taken next to him before we left! (She passed on wearing the pumpkin head herself though, but I think I would have too! - It was a real pumpkin!) At dinner she told her dad that she was very brave today.

Such a fun, perfect preschool field trip. Kaitlyn was so brave!
