He'll have, what, 2 years of pre-school?

Poor kid.

You're joking, right? Pre-school is the best time ever in a kid's life! Lots of kids to play with, all the toys you can imagine, book time, floor time, outdoor time. Would that ALL of school was so awesome!

So the 6 year old had her first soccer game today.
Apparently it had to be reinforced that, even though you aren't allowed to touch the ball with your hands it also means you can't use them as weapons, either.

My sister would never let me date her friends, either.  She wanted to keep them as friends.
