September

Jim The Small Child Nephew began preschool this week, and because he is my godchild, he did not want to go.

"I'll stay in the car," he said when his mother drove him to the parking lot to acquaint him with the notion.

"No preschool bag," he announced when they entered the schoolbag aisle at the store.

Oh, and because he is brilliant, he finally attempted to ship off his little brother in his place.

"Baby Will go. I'll stay here," he suggested.

I always knew I wanted a younger sibling.

Poor fella! He didn't cry? There should be some kind of pre-training so the experience isn't so traumatizing.

Or maybe the teachers should wear costumes!

Let's just hope he doesn't do what my nephew tried to do: slug the teacher. Clearly, he wasn't ready for pre-school!

See, Jim the small child nephew is wise beyond is years. I advise against even starting school because it just snowballs from there. PreSchool leads to elementary school to jr high (shudder) and the next thing you know you are enrolled in law school against your will. Just say no to school. Fight the power Jim! Your tantrums will never be acceptable again, so use them early and use them often.
