Hello All -
Ben wanted to let you all know that he finished his first week of Kindergarten. He had a great time and got a smiley face everyday on his behavior card! Everyone at his school is wonderful and taking great care of him. So mommy is going to go to work on Monday and see how he does - considering he didn't need her all week he probably won't even notice mom's not there.
Ben had his buddy Patrick over for a play date Friday night, swimming pizza and a movie, lots of fun! Today he is going to spend the day with his Grammy and Pops and Shaun because Dad has to work and Mom is going to have lunch with her cancer mom friends - much needed!
Ben still says recess is his favorite part of school! He gets to play with his best bud Jackson who is in his grade but not in his class - which is probably good because those two chatty kathy's would get themselves in all kinds of trouble.
Mom is excited to go back to work - nice change from all the filing, they were really pushing my alphabet skills, talk about pressure!!!! But she will miss all the teachers and office ladies who have been so wonderful all week! Its so nice to know how much they really care about Ben, it makes it much easier to leave him there!
Grandma comes to visit tomorrow! The boys are very excited they have already planned dinner at Applebees and several trips to the dollar store!
We have to get going on our fun filled weekend. Hope you all have a great few days. Ben will be getting chemo again on Wednesday so he will miss school all day - he is not happy about that. We are hopeful he handles it as well as he did last time so he can go to school on Thursday.
Please keep our dear friend Lizzie (forever 3) and her family in your prayers, Lizzie had the same diagnosis as Ben. She earned her angel wings early yesterday morning. It was unexpected as Lizzie had been doing really well. Although we had never met we have been in contact with her family alot and were looking forward to meeting them at the Angel Aimee's DIPG walk in Scranton, PA in September. Please remember to cherish every moment with your kids, things can change so fast. WE LOVE YOU ANGEL LIZZIE!!!!!
Have a great weekend! Love to all
The Sarrat Family

Enjoy you week at work Erin and do not worry about Ben, I am thinking that Grandma will accompany Little Ben to school and be put to work as well...she is typically one of the most valued people on a school campus here in Phoenix. Thinking of you all and hoping for continued success with the chemo.
Love from the Yarnall family....
So if your going back to work Erin does that mean that I get to start picking up my man from school?
Ben,
Kindergarten sounds cool! Glad that you are having fun. I bet you are learning so much.
Tell mom that I was very happy to see her yesterday. Hope we can get together again soon.
We will be thinking and praying for you on Wed. Take care.
Love and Prayers,
Cindy Kitchen
Wow Pirate Ben----- You got smilies for every single day!!!! That is so, so, so AWESOME. Then again, it's not surprising considering what an AWESOME boy you are!!!! Hope that you have tons of fun with your Grandma this week.
Hey Ben,
Hope your feeling good. I like your first day of kindergarden picture. I have been wearing my wristband for you. I wear it every day. I like the color of it. Green is one of my favorite colors.
Have a good week at school!
Love Anna
Ben,
I'm glad you like your new school and are feeling well.

Erin,
Thanks for the updates!
Ahoy Ben,
Glad you're liking school and having fun with your Grammy! We know she loves to go to school too. Even though she's retired she just can't stay away. Does she get to work at school while she's there???
So matey, how about some more school jokes?
Why did the boy eat his homework?
Because the teacher said it was a piece of cake!
Why was the light bulb failing tests?
Because he wasn't too bright!
What is white when dirty and black when clean?
A blackboard! (Do they still have any of those at your new school?)
Time to say "Adios amigos"
Love ya!
Dave and Ginger
