Chase went to Sunday School on Sunday morning. It was a momentous time because Nanaw left him there without her. It's the first time he's been away from her or his parents or other grandma. And the Sunday School teacher said he did wonderfully. She said he played by himself for a few minutes then when he heard everyone singing, he came to be with them. One of the little boys there, an eight-year-old named Alex, decided he really liked Chase -- he said Chase was awesome and that he wanted him to come back to Sunday School. All the children got Easter baskets and Chase was delighted with him and ate most of the candy right away. Chase did something funny when he and Nanaw got home from Sunday School. Nanaw was in the bathroom with the door locked (because Chase now knows how to open doors), and Chase was outside banging on the door and trying to get in. When Nanaw opened the door, there was Chase with his box of play tools, trying to open the door with his tools -- it was very funny. In the afternoon, Chase and Nanaw went out to Stefanina's in Wentzville to have lunch with Nanaw's friends Betty and Joyce. Chase behaved himself wonderfully and was very entertaining. When Nanaw took Chase home, Daddy was back from his fishing trip and Mama was back from Aunt Kristin's baby shower. He was very excited to see the present Daddy bought for him -- he looked outside and saw the sandbox and said, "You bought me a special." That's his new way of saying present. In the evening, he did some finger painting, and Mama says he seemed to have a really good time.
