For Uncle Ryan...

Alexa has been going to preschool two days a week this year. It has been wonderful for her. It took me a lot of searching to find a place that would work for us. In the end we could not have asked for a better program. Each week they focus on a theme and a letter. They have the usual preschool type themes of shapes, colors, and holidays, but they also have some that resemble more school age topics. Things like magnets and famous artists. This week they are studying space. Alexa came home today with some wonderful prints of planets.




She also made something this week that she really wanted to make sure her Uncle Ryan saw. So Uncle Ryan this is for you…



She made a rocket ship. You see Alexa’s Uncle Ryan is a rocket scientist. As in the line, “Come on it’s not rocket science…” Turns out it is! She really wanted Uncle Ryan to see her ship, “Because maybe he could use my idea.”



So what do you think Uncle Ryan?



See anything you can use here? If you want, I can have her call you and make the special noises that make it fly! You know, just so you can have the full effect.

  1. AWESOME!!! Alexa, great job! Thank you! You are a natural rocket scientist. The foil is almost the same material that we use on big rockets for thermal protection. And the rubber band at the base of the nose is nearly identical to our V-band system.

    I love it!
    Uncle Ryan
