First day of school! First day of school!


Title is a Nemo reference of course. Yes, the boys are back at school. Here's the picture of them heading off that morning.

Connor had his first full week this week, though he had had some short days the week before. Last year it was quite clear that Connor wanted to go to school with Jamie very badly. We would always drop Jamie before taking Connor to school and by the end of the year he would just cry as Jamie got out of the car and say "I wan' go school wiff JAMIE!!!!!" Now that he can he seems pleased enough, but he has already learned from Jamie to give absolutely nothing away. We ask if he liked it and he says "Yeah." What did you do, we ask. "I don't remember." Do you have any buddies? "Yeah." What are their names? "I don't remember." You get the pattern. Except that, just to mess with us I think, when we asked if he liked his teacher he said "Nope. Not one bit." (That's a classic Jamie phrase). But he does always seem in a very good mood when he comes home so I think he is happy. The one detail we get consistently is that he used the potty and washed his hands. At age 3, we're pretty willing to consider anything more as gravy.
