Speaking of Itching. . .

Today was Joe's first day in his new pre-school room, Pre-A, as it's know at the KinderCare. (Longtime readers will perhaps recall that confusingly, Pre-A, follows Pre-C.) Joe's teacher is Ms. Kristin, who told us that Joe spent the day reviewing some class rules with his friends, and that he and his friends learned about each other in accordance with their two-week theme, "All About Me!" They practiced using full sentences as they got to know new things about each other. They also marched around the room singing The Ants Go Marching. And you think you've had a busy day!

When we arrived to pick Joe and Clara up, we learned that there had been one reported case of everyone's favorite--absolutely favorite!--childhood and school days pest: lice. So besides collecting Joe, we also collected his blanket and jacket which are currently being washed in hot water.
