In other news....
Henry has been attending kindergarten, albeit reluctantly, most times crying - but after a few minutes he is fine. He told me the other night in bed, through tears "I wish there was no such thing as school..." I told him there is, get used to it. No I didn't...I told him, well, I just said it a little nicer than that... Poor kid, every day is a little better, and he is really enjoying being there, when he comes out of the classroom he tells us all the new things he did - it's just getting him there.
Anyway, Dana was talking to him at home about some things the teacher sent home, he had to finish this sentence "What I wish to learn more about is...." Dana asked him and he answered..."I want to learn boxing".....Huh? Dana told him, "that's great - but is there anything else in school you want to learn about?" He asked "what's that thing with all the letters?"...."The Alphabet??" Dana said. "Yeah....I guess I should learn something about that alphabet...." Well as long as he tries....
Thank you for all the posts regarding my 'pre-teen'.... I found this on the net - if anyone gives this to her, you will be banned from this blog!!
Sometimes I think she may have secretly read it already....

That alphabet thing needs a good left hook. Why can't there be boxing at school? School is too girly. They could have punching bags, and when you learn a new letter or to spell a new word, they could write it on the bag and you could give it a victory pow.
Tell Hannah that not only is she a pre-teen, she is a pre-boring grownup.

I think Henry deserves to go to a monster truck show. What do you know...ha!
