Career Day at Preschool!

On Monday, Charlie got an extra special treat at school... a visit from Daddy! 

Mike spent part of the morning with the class to talk a little bit about his job. (Ok, mostly he compared his job to Lightning McQueen and his sponsor, Rusteze... words a preschooler can understand.) He also shared all of the different color flags you see in racing and what they all mean. He read "The Race Car Alphabet," and he showcased a real helmet and driver's uniform. A few of Charlie's classmates even tried on Uncle Tony's helmet! How cool is that?! Afterwards, Mike gave away hats, No. 14 matchbox cars and even an autographed hero card. Not too many Dads can do that for their kids' class, can they?

Here are a couple of pictures from Mike's visit to StoneBridge.

Charlie and a few of his classmates. Aren't they cute?

Doesn't Mike look like he's having fun?

Charlie was excited to help his classmates try on Uncle Tony's helmet.
(Charlie wanted no part of it, though.)

This is Grayson. He loved it!

Mike taught Parker how to hold up a #1 sign.

Isn't it fun to get a sneak peak of what Charlie's like in school?
