C'est la rentrée!


September 8, 2010 was my first day of school. Boy, was I tired by the end of the day! Let's see for the recap:
- 6:30am, Papa woke me up and helped me get dressed
- 6:40am, Papa held me down while Maman put drops in my ears. See, two days prior ( during the labor day week-end, I was at the doctor and was diagnosed with an outer ear infection and I really, really do NOT like the drops).
- 7:10am, after breakfast Maman and I drove to the school
- 7:35am, Maman dropped me in the early arrival room with teachers Nadia and Rosario
- 8:15am, I am escorted to my classroom with my teachers Gilles and Edith.
- 11:45am, I had lunch with teachers Edith and Roxanne.
- 12:30pm to 2:00pm, nap time. I got maybe an hour of sleep.
- 3:15pm, end of class; I am escorted to after school care with teachers Jennifer and Rosa.
Seven, yes, seven adults in 9 hours.
Rinse and repeat for the next 10 months of this school year.
If I am lucky, Maman comes and gets me before 5:00pm. But I think I will not get lucky too often.
Those are looooooooooooong days. But I am happy to go, I have fun and I am already making friends. Jacob and I played ghosts with our blankets during nap time and it did not go too well with our teacher Gilles. The guy has no humor or what?

More school stories later... I need a good nap now. It's Saturday and I just came back from swimming. I missed it during the Summer and was a happy fish today!
Enjoy the cool, oh so cool September weather,
Noah
